A video claims to show 96 children who died from injuries related to COVID-19 vaccines, including 77 in the last three months. Like many false claims, the video uses fear mongering and emotional appeals without any evidence to support its claims.
Recommendation: While any death is a tragedy, there is no evidence linking these deaths to COVID-19 and no data about the children’s cause of death or vaccination status. Messaging may explain that the increase in sudden deaths began early in the pandemic before COVID-19 vaccines were available and closely mirrors COVID-19 waves, not vaccination rates.
