Sometimes, the credibility of a person should be assessed prior to evaluation claims he makes. In the case of both #petermccullough and his McCullough Foundation, we should be aware that these two entities/ individual have been identified as misinformation peddlers and should not trusted. Science.feedback have identified multiple instances where such was fully demonstrated.
Notre proposition « Désinformation Vaccinale: Curation, Observatoire, Littératies » a été retenue pour le séminaire annuel de l’Académie des Controverses et de la Communication Sensible, intitulé « La désinformation : nouvelles formes, nouveaux défis », qui s'est tenu à Paris le mardi 26 novembre 2024.

Vaccinations and Fake News: Curation, Observatory, Literacies
acceptée à Vaccines 2025, un congrès prédateur à Amsterdam
une autre à Oulu à l'AIS, mais je n'ai pas été prévenu de l'acceptation avant la date butoir de registration, dommage
Polycrisis and global health Vaccine hesitancy should be added to landscape
des sujets à approfondir
- Vaccins et argent Making money with vaccines, against vaccines
le sujet le plus chaud, de 3,36 euros par mois à 300 millions de dollars?
- Publications vraies et fausses particulièrement difficile
- Obligations, exemptions, incitations, peut-être plus simple?
Gilbert C FAURE's insight:
The topic addresses Fake news as a global problem, extracting material focusing on vaccinations, vaccination hesitancy and anti-vax attitudes. The subject is evolving constantly with health consequences all over the world.
This topic became a research action project at CREM (Centre de Recherche sur les médiations)
Ir covers not only Fake News still thriving on the internet,
but also efforts of many (supranational bodies, scientific societies, researchers...) to improve health literacies of laypeople, and medical students on this sensitive topic...
Fake News related to Covid and Vaccinations slightly decreased compared to other topics such as ukrainian war, gaza war, and politics in USA even sports related informations... but the involvement of politicians in the topic very much increased !
Unfortunately, as Jonathan Swift so eloquently said: Reasoning will never make a man correct an ill opinion, which by reasoning he never acquired.

Aluminum is the third most abundant element in Earth's crust and naturally occurs everywhere—in our food, water, and even breast milk. We consume 7-9 milligrams daily through normal diet, far more than what's found in vaccines.
Aluminum is used as an adjuvant in vaccines because it acts like a microphone for the immune system, amplifying the vaccine's signal so your body mounts a stronger, longer-lasting defense against disease. Without adjuvants, many vaccines simply wouldn't work effectively. Some people have questions and concerns about aluminum in vaccines, particularly the claim that injected aluminum is fundamentally different and more dangerous than aluminum we consume through food and drink. They worry it bypasses natural defenses and accumulates dangerously in the body.
Here's why the science doesn't support these concerns: Once aluminum enters your bloodstream—whether from vaccines, food, or antacids—your body processes it identically. Vaccine aluminum is formulated as insoluble salts that dissolve slowly at the injection site, releasing only small amounts into circulation over time. Your kidneys efficiently eliminate about half within 24 hours, with the remainder cleared in subsequent days. Extensive research using sophisticated tracking methods confirms that aluminum from vaccines doesn't accumulate to harmful levels and is safely eliminated through normal bodily processes.
In our latest newsletter, we discuss the nearly 100 years of safety data on aluminum adjuvants, examine the specific research addressing injection versus ingestion concerns, and put vaccine aluminum exposure in perspective, showing that a baby receives far more aluminum from feeding than from the entire childhood vaccine schedule.

"Fake News" about COVID: What Information Literacy Needs to Know about Health Communication" - Chana Kraus-Friedberg (Michigan State University)
Librarians and educators are accustomed to treating information and media literacy as broadly subject agnostic. It is therefore not surprising that we have positioned ourselves on the front lines against the spread of mis/disinformation about COVID-19. As with other kinds of sources, we show students how to identify markers of unreliability and reliability, and how to read laterally in order to fact check. Once students can do this, we hope they will not believe or spread health mis/disinformation about COVID. Research in science and health communication, however, indicates that evaluating health journalism comes with its own particular issues. In this presentation, I will discuss three of these issues: the media framing of how science in general works, how science/health journalists get information about research, and the particular tells of unreliable health journalism. In each case, I will suggest some approaches/tools that will help address these issues in information literacy instruction around COVID.
Secretary Kennedy, trying to defend his dismissal of an advisory committee using a pay-walled op-ed (without notifying the members in advance), doubled down on attacking the committee members and repeating a list of untrue anti-vaccine tropes on X, a private platform that not everyone has access to.
He said he will be announcing a list of new members to the committee on that platform, too. Apparently, without the usual process of vetting.
Radical transparency, indeed.
Reminder: Kennedy promised that - A. He will maintain the committee (to Senator Cassidy). B. That he will not take away anyone's vaccines.
It seems like one can`t go anywhere on the Internet without seeing these terms in one form or another; regardless of the context or topic.
Fake news, propaganda, false information call it what you will - it's everywhere on the Internet.
According to the website of the World Health Organization, “four studies reviewed in a paper looked at the proportion of health misinformation on social media, and found that it reached up to 51% in posts associated with vaccines, up to 28.8% in posts associated with COVID-19, and up to 60% in posts related to pandemics.
Among YouTube videos about emerging infectious diseases, 20–30% were found to contain inaccurate or misleading information.”

DECADES OF CORRUPTION: Congressional Report Confirms CDC’s ACIP Has Been Compromised Since the 1990s
As RFK Jr. resets the CDC’s vaccine panel, vaccine ideologues spiral into panic—conveniently forgetting that Congress exposed ACIP’s systemic corruption over two decades ago ⬇️
🔻2000 House report: 7 of 10 ACIP rotavirus advisers had direct conflicts 🔻Members voted on vaccines while holding pharma stock or patents 🔻Every member received a conflict-of-interest waiver—"freely" 🔻ACIP approved Rotashield before FDA licensing—later pulled for harming infants
For the first time in a generation, there is hope that U.S. vaccine policy may finally be shaped by independent experts who put public safety before profit.
Did you know that in most cases of diphtheria symptoms resolve after several days? These symptoms may include sore throat, loss of appetite, and low grade fever. Some cases may develop a barking cough, swelling of the neck, and airway obstruction.
Research studies estimate that in the absence of mass vaccination, the annual risk of a child younger than 10 contracting a fatal case of diphtheria in the U.S. is about 1 in 1.7 million, or 0.00006%.

A recent study explores the impact of needle-free delivery of fractional dose inactivated polio vaccine on Nigeria’s routine immunization program. The research assesses the feasibility, cost-effectiveness, and impact of using a WHO-prequalified, intradermal needle-free device, Tropis®, for vaccine administration.
The study found that needle-free delivery showed improved coverage and the potential for cost savings, particularly in hard-to-reach areas. The devices were also well-received by healthcare workers and caregivers, citing reduced pain and increased efficiency.

History of Vaccines is an educational resource by the College of Physicians of Philadelphia, one of the oldest professional medical organizations in the US.
The rapid evolution of artificial intelligence (AI), together with the increased availability of social media and news for epidemiological surveillance, is marking a pivotal moment in epidemiology and public health research.
I was giving a vaccine advocacy talk in St. Paul when my phone started blowing up with this image. I was covering how to call Congress (202) 224-3121, to ask for your rep and ask for the resignation of RFKJ. Why? The list of lies was already so long about “MMR has killed people, measles is no big deal, no vaccine has been safety tested, kids and pregnant people don’t need COVID vaccine” and on and on. And then the news broke about RFKJ’s lies about the ACIP and that the ACIP voting members had been removed.
I was a voting member of ACIP from 2004-2008—first nurse in the US to sit in that seat with 14 esteemed colleagues. I represented NAPNAP as a liaison member (input but no vote) for another 16 years. I was on 11 different working groups (the in-between meetings where the interdisciplinary expert work happens) in my 20 years as a volunteer vaccinologist. No one gets paid on ACIP-not from pharma, not from CDC, it’s a volunteer honor to share expertise on one of the most respected public health committees in the world. I can say from extended, first-hand experience that RFKJ is lying about ACIP.
The meetings are a model of transparency. The media was IN the room quoting you the minute you speak, anyone is allowed to attend or connect on line (60,000 people usually did) and public comment was part of the agenda. A full transcript and all slides from the meeting were posted on the website.
I have been closely following RFKJ’s 20 year deceit journey for profit and know he has just fulfilled his own dream based on conspiracy. He caused the distrust of public health and vaccines and now is using it again for his own gain. This is a dystopian, dangerous place for our country to be in.
RFKJ is who needs to be removed. Please call. | 39 comments on LinkedIn
“Trust in science” is often framed as a problem of fact-checking or reliability of evidence. But that framing misses the point.
People don’t build trust in science through exposure to more data. They build it through relationships, relevance, and lived experience. Yet in discourse over trust in science, the conversation often veers into defending the top of the evidence pyramid, as if stronger methods alone can repair trust.
This overreliance on method hierarchies oversimplifies misinformation, marginalizes alternative ways of knowing, and misunderstands how trust is built. We need epistemological pluralism, not just better trials.
As an editor, I’ve seen how our narrow definitions of “rigor” actually fuel alienation and misunderstanding.
If we want to defend science, we need to expand what we mean by it. And that begins with recognizing that truth is not a single peak. It's a terrain and we need to get better at navigating it.

Les discours antivaccins ont plus d'impact sur les populations les moins éduquées et les plus défavorisées, creusant ainsi les inégalités face à la maladie. La lutte contre la désinformation passe par l'éducation, l'accès à des informations validées et des sanctions contre ceux qui jouent avec la santé des plus fragiles.
A new study analyzed leukemia patients who developed cancer shortly after C-19 shots—their bone marrow showed distinct cancer-associated metabolic alterations.
💉 All 7 inoculated patients developed leukemia within 63 days
📈 Unique metabolic shifts not seen in classic leukemia: ↑ Tetrahydrofolic acid ↑ Phosphorylcholine ↑ N-Formyl-L-glutamic acid / N-Acetyl-L-aspartic acid ↑ Delta 8.14-Sterol
