Original Note:
Turbo cancer is not a medical term. Dr. Makis has propagated the idea that COVID-19 vaccines, especially mRNA vaccines, lead to an aggressive and fast-growing form of cancer. However, there is no factual basis for this claim. He has made other debunked claims. https://sciencebasedmedicine.org/dr-william-makis-and-turbo-cancer-falsely-blaming-covid-19-vaccines-for-cancer/ https://sciencebasedmedicine.org/do-covid-19-vaccines-cause-turbo-cancer/ https://www.factcheck.org/issue/turbo-cancer/ https://www.factcheck.org/2023/11/scicheck-posts-spread-false-claim-about-moderna-patent-application/ https://www.reuters.com/article/idUSL1N33K1EM/ https://gettr.com/user/makismd
