First Draft are doing regular misinformation reports on the types of stories about vaccination that are going round social media and news outlets. Here is their latest:

They also highlight some areas where more credible information is needed - booster shots, vaccinating children and VAERS.

Here is May's Vaccine Misinformation Insights Report https://firstdraftnews.org/long-form-ar ... eport-may/

Covering: Pfizer extending vaccination to teenagers, infertility and new variants have been created for financial purposes.

Areas where there is a lack of information: Effectiveness of vaccines against new variants, vaccine contract renewals and vaccines creating new strains.

Thanks for that. As a bonus it links to a report on Natural News which I've downloaded for later reading.
