A conspiracy news site published an article falsely claiming that monkeypox is being used to cover up so-called “vaccine-acquired immunodeficiency syndrome” (VAIDS) caused by COVID-19 vaccines. The article, which has been widely circulated on social media, falsely claims that monkeypox is similar to a rare autoimmune blistering disease that was listed in Pfizer documents as a potential vaccine side effect. The site making the false claim regularly misrepresents and manipulates data to support false claims about COVID-19 vaccines.
