11 Vaccine Myths That Just Refuse To Die: Debunked

5. Ingredients III: Glyphosate

Glyphosate is the big bad compound of the anti-GMO community. Glyphosate is the main compound found in the pesticide “Roundup” manufactured by agricultural company Monsanto. Much like the big bad of the anti-vaccine community, replace “vaccines” and “Big Pharma” with “Glyphosate” and “Monsanto”, and you have the thought process of the anti-GMO community. Glyphosate is apparently the source of all the world’s problems, from SIDS to cancer to diabetes to behavioural conditions and mental illness.

I was wondering how long it was going to take to do a crossover between the anti-vaccine and anti-GMO community. Apparently, having just one worldwide conspiracy secretly controlled by a single company isn’t enough and, thus, the idea of Glyphosate in vaccines was born.

The idea is based on what we can refer as a “logical trainwreck on fire.” The theory proclaims that spraying corn with Roundup, which is then fed to chickens, who lay the eggs which go into the production of inactive virus vaccines, somehow equates to Glyphosate being incorporated into vaccines which is then delivered into the body. In other news, I ate steak last night – I now have cow DNA inside me and an unusual desire to eat grass.

The idea hit the internet when Anthony Samsel created a YouTube video of a study that hasn’t even been published yet claiming he found Glyphosate in vaccinations – the problem being the study is so seriously flawed, that not even predatory pay-us-anything-and-we-will-publish you journals will accept it for publication.

The group “Moms across America” attempted to conduct a study which linked Glyphosate to vaccines and failed. Miserably.
