Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.’s running mate Nicole Shanahan posted a link to a bad study “explaining” menstrual issues caused by COVID vaccines. It’s an in vitro study that explains almost nothing. It’s basically the scientific equivalent of clickbait.

Antivaxxers have long claimed that vaccines can cause female infertility. That claim has been resurrected for COVID-19 vaccines. This time, it’s the lipid nanoparticles attacking the ovaries, echoing very old claims about polysorbate-80. Truly, everything old is new again.

Antivax pediatrician Dr. Larry Palevsky recently demonized COVID-19 vaccines by resurrecting the old antivaccine trope of vaccinated people “shedding” and causing illness in the unvaccinated. This time, he claims, the shedding of spike protein causes illness and menstrual problems in the unvaccinated. It’s utter nonsense.
