Misinformation fuels COVID-19 vaccine conspiracy theories By Sara Goldenberg | April 20, 2021 at 11:33 PM EDT - Updated April 20 at 11:33 PM
CLEVELAND, Ohio (WOIO) - Since the beginning of the coronavirus pandemic, conspiracy theories have been a huge problem.
Now conspiracy theories are targeting Covid-19 vaccines, even as more data comes out every day about how safe and effective they are.
Misinformation is leading some people to skip the vaccine.
Nearly three in ten Americans, 27%, donât plan to get the Covid-19 vaccine, according to a new Quinnipiac University poll.
âWe hear a lot of hesitancy, well this was developed too quickly. Or trying to feed into the conspiracy theories that the mRNA vaccines are going to alter my DNA, and those different things,â said Mike Derr, health commissioner of Holmes County General Health District.
