Did an FDA document just prove that COVID-19 vaccine shedding is real?! Take a look at the viral claim, and find out what the facts really are!
Claim : FDA Doc Proves COVID Vaccine Shedding Is Real!
People are sharing articles (archive | archive) by Natural News and Infowars, which claimed or suggested that an FDA document just proved that COVID-19 vaccine shedding is real!
Here is an excerpt from those articles. Feel free to skip to the next section for the facts!

Truth : FDA Doc Does Not Prove COVID Vaccine Shedding Is Real!
This is yet another example of anti-vaccine fake news, and here are the reasons why…
Fact #1 : The FDA Document Is From 2015
Let me start by pointing out that the FDA document in question is almost 9 years old, being originally published in August 2015.
In other words – it was published 4 years before the COVID-19 pandemic, and 5 years before the first COVID-19 vaccines were approved.
Fact #2 : FDA Document Does Not Apply To COVID-19 Vaccines!
The FDA document was an industry guidance paper (PDF) called Design and Analysis of Shedding Studies for Virus or Bacteria-based Gene Therapy and Oncolytic Products.
The title itself is clear – it only refers to “Virus or Bacteria-based Gene Therapy and Oncolytic Products“.
COVID-19 vaccines are not gene therapy (gene modification) products, and they are not oncolytic (cancer killing) products either. So the FDA document does not apply to them!
Fact #3 : Shedding Only Occurs With Live Attenuated Virus Vaccines
Vaccine shedding actually refers to viral shedding, which can only (potentially) occur with live attenuated virus vaccines. Such vaccines alters the virus to make it weakened or even harmless, but still “live”.
There are no COVID-19 vaccines that are based on the live attenuated SARS-CoV-2 virus. Therefore, vaccine shedding cannot possibly occur with any COVID-19 vaccine currently-approved by the WHO.
All currently-approved COVID-19 vaccines are based on other vaccine technologies like inactivated virus (killed virus), viral vector (using a different virus), mRNA (using mRNA instructions), or subunit vaccines (using isolated viral proteins).
To be clear – mRNA vaccines from Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna, highlighted in the Natural News and Infowars articles, do not cause vaccine shedding.

Fact #4 : Viruses Multiply, Vaccines Won’t
I should also point out that if the spike protein is so dangerous, then it is even more important to get vaccinated against COVID-19. After all, viruses multiply, while the vaccines won’t!
Even if we simply look at the mRNA vaccines alone, they contain a limited number of mRNA instructions that encode for the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein. The mRNA instructions enter a limited number of cells, which then produce and display those spike proteins on their surfaces, to trigger our immune system.
If you are infected by the actual SARS-CoV-2 virus though, it quickly hijacks your cells to produce millions of copies – each covered with spike proteins, which then infect even more cells, in an ever-expanding chain reaction.
Until your immune system learns to stop and defeat the SARS-CoV-2 virus, it will keep producing millions and millions of viruses that will circulate through your body, delivering those nasty spike proteins everywhere.
So if you are really worried about the spike protein, you should really get vaccinated against COVID-19!
Fact #5 : Natural News Is Known For Fake News
Natural News is a far-right, anti-vaccination conspiracy theory and fake news website that is known for publishing / promoting pseudoscience, disinformation, and far-right extremism.
Writing in the journal Vaccine, Anna Kata identified Natural News as one of numerous websites spreading “irresponsible health information”. According to John Banks, Natural News founder Mike Adams uses “pseudoscience to sell his lies” and is “seen as generally a quack and a shill by science bloggers.”
Dr. David Gorski called Natural News “one of the most wretched hives of scum and quackery on the Internet,” and the most “blatant purveyor of the worst kind of quackery and paranoid anti-physician and anti-medicine conspiracy theories anywhere on the Internet”.
Its articles have been regularly debunked as fake news, so you should never share anything from Natural News. Here are some of its fake stories that I fact checked earlier:

- Pfizer added Heart Attack Drug to COVID Vaccine for Kids?!
