The top-performing link on Facebook in the US from January to March suggested the COVID-19 vaccine could be deadly, according to a report released by the social media giant Saturday that identified the most popular content on the platform from January to March.

Facebook has come under heightened scrutiny this year over misinformation about COVID-19 that has been shared on the platform, with President Joe Biden saying earlier this year that Facebook is "killing people." (He later walked back the comments.)

Earlier this week, Facebook released a report that identified popular content from April to June, prompting questions over why data was not released for the first quarter of the year. The top-performing links in the Q2 report were mostly harmless content, things like sports, recipes, and animals.

But The New York Times reported Friday the Q1 report had been intentionally withheld by senior executives for fear of backlash.

1. So they were totally aware of it, and they left it up. Because it made them money.

Sure, kids. Facebook is totally benign.

2. It Just Shows How Dumb Some People Can Be

If you’d rather get your medical advice from Facebook than from your doctor, then you’re just too dumb to live.

Honestly, I wish these people would just hurry up and die.

3. At least I got my medical degree

from WebMD

I used to accuse my Dad of having a medical degree from Readers Digest. He thought hydrogen peroxide and Vick’s Vapor Rub would cure anything.

Milk of Magnesia or castor oil. Two of the most vile treatments for constipation ever invented. 😝

8. My mom had to

Drink an insane amount of mineral oil before undergoing her colonoscopy. A gallon of the stuff, if I am recalling correctly. It made her violently ill right before the procedure was to begin.

7. I wouldn't mind seeing him dragged before the Hague for this.

He's gonna have a lot of blood on his hands when anti-vaxxers start dying in large numbers.
