Original Note:
The claim that mRNA vaccines have caused a 14,000% increase in “Turbo cancer” is false. The CDC has explicitly stated that there is no evidence to date indicating that COVID-19 vaccines cause cancer of any sort (including so-called ‘turbo cancers’). https://leadstories.com/hoax-alert/2023/09/fact-check-cdc-did-not-confirm-143233-percent-increase-in-turbo-cancers-due-to-mrna-jabs.html https://www.factcheck.org/2023/08/covid-19-vaccines-have-not-been-shown-to-cause-turbo-cancer/ https://sciencebasedmedicine.org/do-covid-19-vaccines-cause-turbo-cancer/ https://www.factcheck.org/issue/turbo-cancer/ https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2023/12/15/false-claim-moderna-admitted-mrna-vaccines-cause-cancer-fact-check/71728496007/ https://www.reuters.com/article/idUSL1N3340PQ/
