Earlier this week on the Kevin Miller morning radio show at KIDO AM 580 I heard someone comment favorably about an article by ‘Dr.’ Robert Young claiming to show there was graphene oxide in COVID vaccines. His article is titled Scanning & Transmission Electron Microscopy Reveals Graphene Oxide in CoV-19 Vaccines. He tweeted about it here.
Reuters has one article on July 23, 2021 titled Fact Check – COVID-19 vaccines do not contain graphene oxide, and a second on August 11, 2021 titled Fact Check – NO evidence graphene oxide is present in available COVID-19 vaccines via lipid nanoparticles.
Is Young a reliable source for information about Covid-19 or anything else? No! A brief Google search found that on September 22, 2020 the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) sent him a six-page warning letter titled Re: Unsubstantiated claims for Coronavirus prevention and treatment. There also are web pages about him both at Quackwatch and the Encyclopedia of American Loons. At Science-Based Medicine David Gorski had two long articles about him. One on January 27, 2014 is titled pH Miracle Living “Dr” Robert O. Young is finally arrested, but will it stop him?, and a second on November 5, 2018 is titled More, please! A victim of cancer quack Robert O. Young wins a $105 million settlement.
