A social media post circulating online has sparked concern by suggesting that individuals vaccinated against COVID-19 may develop serious medical complications, accompanied by X-ray images showing apparent limb abnormalities.
However, medical experts strongly caution that there is no scientific evidence linking COVID-19 vaccines to bone deformities, limb damage, or the types of abnormalities depicted in the images.
The X-ray images in the post appear to show localized injury or possible trauma to the lower leg and foot. Radiologists note that such findings are typically associated with fractures, infections, vascular issues, or other unrelated medical conditions — not vaccination.
Public health authorities worldwide have repeatedly confirmed that COVID-19 vaccines undergo rigorous safety testing before approval. While mild side effects such as soreness at the injection site, fatigue, or low-grade fever are common, serious adverse reactions are rare and are continuously monitored through established safety systems.
