MYTH: The COVID-19 vaccines were developed with or contain controversial substances.

FACTS:
The first two COVID vaccines (Pfizer and Moderna) to be approved by the FDA contain mRNA and other, normal vaccine ingredients, such as fats, salts, as well as a small amount of sugar. These COVID vaccines were not developed using fetal tissue, and they do not contain any material, such as implants, microchips, or tracking devices.
