Have you seen this meme attempting to "debunk" sea level rise and climate change? I spoke with @CASeaGrant who told the @snopes newsroom that the argument simply doesn’t hold.

In my latest for @snopes, we explored statements made by Ohio attorney Thomas Renz that claimed 45,000 people have died within three days of receiving their #COVID19 vaccine. Allegations were said to have come from a “government insider.” [A thread.]

At the core of Renz’s argument was a lawsuit he filed in Alabama on behalf of America’s Frontline Doctors against U.S. DHHS Secretary Xavier Becerra that claimed the government did not have grounds to roll out the three vaccines.
