4,075 claims on this topic checked by other fact-checking organisations. Topics are sorted by the words in each claim and cover English-language checks.
PolitiFact says: There hasn’t been any definitive proof that a COVID-19 vaccination led to someone’s death. The CDC did make an error on its website in reporting deaths that occur after vaccinations, but corrected it the same day.
PolitiFact says: Over the previous week, Florida accounted for more than one-fifth of new COVID-19 cases in the U.S. and recorded more COVID-19 deaths than any other state.
FactCheck.org says: Studies suggest unvaccinated people with the delta variant of the novel coronavirus are twice as likely to be hospitalized, compared with alpha. But a video claims vaccinated people are twice as likely to be hospitalized
FACTLY says: There are significant differences between COVID-19 and the common flu including higher reproductive and mortality rates for COVID-19
PolitiFact says: Video clips appear to show Joe Biden and Kamala Harris raising doubts about COVID-19 vaccines, but they were raising concerns about the rollout by then-President Donald Trump, not the vaccines themselves.
PolitiFact says: PPE used by the general public doesn’t need to be disposed of like medical waste. Masks to prevent the spread of COVID-19 can be thrown away in the trash because COVID-19 doesn’t spread or survive easily on surfaces.
PolitiFact says: New and used car prices began to increase in the summer of 2020, federal data shows. By June 2021, prices were almost 21% above their level right before the pandemic hit. Private-sector data shows the same pattern.
FactCheck.org says: The beds were designed before the pandemic and can bear more than 400 pounds.
FactCheck.org says: There is no evidence linking the novel coronavirus to a lab — only speculation. Many scientists with expertise in coronaviruses consider a lab escape unlikely.
FactCheck.org says: A satire site a month ago published a joke about the Biden administration creating "quarantine camps" for the unvaccinated. Now that fabricated story is circulating online, presented as if it's real.
PolitiFact says: Biden is citing a figure that has been offered publicly on at least two occasions by the director of the CDC, Dr. Rochelle Walensky.
FactCheck.org says: The Consumer Price Index for new and used cars in cities was up about 20% between January 2020 and June of this year. But a car price expert says that's partly because people are buying bigger, more expensive cars.
PolitiFact says: The CDC says that COVID-19 vaccines are effective. However, no vaccines are 100% effective at preventing illness. There will be a small percentage of fully vaccinated people who get sick, are hospitalized, or die.
PolitiFact says: National health privacy rules bar insurers and healthcare providers from sharing health records without permission. They allow employers to ask about vaccination status.
PolitiFact says: The post leaves out the fact that vaccination substantially reduces the risk of infection. Reports indicate that more than 99% of recent COVID-19 deaths in the U.S. are among unvaccinated people.
