The claim: People fully vaccinated against COVID-19 can 'shed' the virus and infect unvaccinated people
Nearly 150 million Americans have received at least one dose of the coronavirus vaccine, but some say it may not make much of a difference in limiting the spread of COVID-19.
In an article published May 3, LifeSite, which bills itself as “an independent pro-life news outlet,” wrote that people who have received the coronavirus vaccine may still infect others.
“As these experimental vaccines create ‘spike proteins,’ vaccinated individuals ‘can shed some of these particles to close contacts’ causing disease in them, including in children,” says the subhead of article, which has more than 2,000 shares on Facebook.
