acquired immunodeficiency syndrome

CLAIM: A new study by Australian researchers shows that Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine caused vaccine acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, or “VAIDS.”

Further, medical experts have repeatedly emphasized that COVID-19 vaccination has not been linked to developing HIV, or acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, which is caused by HIV.

Nor does a condition called “VAIDS” — vaccine acquired immunodeficiency syndrome — exist.

One user commented under the post that the video showed a reaction caused by “VAIDS,” short for vaccine acquired immunodeficiency syndrome.

Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, or AIDS, had claimed the lives of about 200,000 Americans at the time and was the leading cause of death of people ages 25 to 44.
