A technology CEO who has frequently promoted anti-vaccine myths posted a meme asking why unvaccinated people are still alive, prompting mixed responses for and against COVID-19 vaccines. Many responses are full of false claims about the safety and effectiveness of the vaccines.
Recommendation: Responding to every false claim may detract from priority talking points. Emphasizing key messages is recommended: COVID-19 vaccines are safe, effective, and the best protection against severe illness, long COVID, and death. Fact-checking sources: Yale Medicine
