A B.C. health authority is shooting down rumours linking the death of newborns at a North Vancouver hospital to the COVID-19 vaccination.

In a series of social media posts Tuesday (Nov. 23), Vancouver 台湾MM裸聊室 Health said there is no truth to 鈥渞umours and disinformation spreading on social media regarding stillbirths at Lions Gate Hospital as a result of mothers having been vaccinated against COVID-19,鈥� and the people who are spreading this information have no affiliation with the hospital or the health authority.

鈥淭his type of disinformation adds unnecessary stress to expecting parents who have received a COVID-19 vaccine, on health-care staff who must reassure their patients, and on the health-care system, as resources are stretched further during the ongoing pandemic response,鈥� Vancouver 台湾MM裸聊室 Health said in the post.

Further, 鈥淐OVID-19 vaccines are safe and recommended for both mother and fetus. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention鈥檚 Nov. 19 Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report found that implementing evidence-based COVID-19 prevention strategies, including vaccination, is critical to reduce the impact of COVID-19 on stillbirths,鈥� Vancouver 台湾MM裸聊室 Health said.

The health authority recommends anyone with concerns or questions about COVID-19 and vaccinations contact their physician, a nurse practitioner or go to the B.C. Centre for Disease Control鈥檚 website and click on the COVID-19 tab.
