RFID chips will not be injected with the COVID-19 vaccine

A video shared over 27,100 times on Facebook implies that the COVID-19 vaccine will contain a tracking microchip that will be injected in the individuals that receive the COVID-19 vaccine once it is ready. This is false.To get more news about rfid chip, you can visit bestrfidcard official website.

The 3:49-minute video visible here (archived version archive.vn/CNhct ) is a compilation of out of context or manipulated footage, that includes news reports and commentary from Bill and Melinda Gates and Jack Ma that have been selectively combined.

Some comments on the video include “Say no to being tracked with a chip”, “I will cut off my arm before I let them microchip me or my kids” and “Scary! I don’t want anyone’s microchip implanted in my body!!”Around timestamp 00:24, the video includes fragments of a CBN interview here with Jay Walker, executive chairman of pre-filled syringe maker Apiject, which got a $590 million U.S. loan to produce injectors for the eventual COVID-19 vaccine on Nov. 19 ( here ).

In this interview from May 2020 Walker is asked about how the “optional RFID chip” would work, in reference to the Radio Frequency Identification chip that could be part of the syringe’s label, not the injectable substance itself (as explained in detail here on page 13).

In his full response, Walker compares the rfid chip to a “bar code” and assures that it doesn’t carry any personal information. He also explains that the microchip “is purely optional, however, and the U.S. government hasn’t even decided if they’re going to use it.”

Steve Hofman, a spokesman of Apiject confirmed to Reuters via phone that this “optional” microchip will not be injected into the individual who receives the vaccine.Hofman reassured that this technology is optional and that so far it hasn’t been requested. He also added that the microchip “cannot gather any personal information”.

The microchip, he explained, is designed for two purposes: “to allow the healthcare provider to confirm that the actual injectable and the vaccine in it has not expired and that it is not counterfeit.” It would also confirm that “that particular injection has been used”. The health provider, Hofman added, would use a cellphone app to capture and revise this information.
