☆ Fact Check-Video does not show Australian doctor suffering stroke because of COVID vaccine
  + stars: | 2023-03-22 | by ( Reuters Fact Check | ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +1 min
A 2020 video of a doctor in China collapsing during an operation was shared online with captions falsely suggesting that it shows an Australian surgeon suffering a stroke related to COVID-19 vaccination. The clip was posted on Twitter (here) and Facebook (bit.ly/3FGGxyX) with the description: “Triple jabbed Australian surgeon stroking out mid-surgery. Again, this is apocalyptic.”But the video dates back to January 2020, at least nine months before COVID-19 vaccines were developed and rolled out in China (here). A still from the video appears in a Jan. 17, 2020 report by The Beijing News, which describes the footage as circulating online at that time (here). A 2020 video shows a Chinese doctor collapsing during due to hypoglycemia and exhaustion, not an Australian surgeon “stroking out” because of the COVID-19 vaccine.
