A fact checking site put covidiots’ minds at rest and Brian Cox’s response was 10/10

Poke Staff. Updated May 25th, 2021

It doubtlessly says something about the way we live now that a fact-checking site felt the need to, you know, fact check claims that the Covid-19 vaccine makes you Bluetooth-enabled.

Independent-fact checking charity @FullFact shared its findings on Twitter and we hope it’s not too much of a stretch to say they won’t surprise you.

The Covid-19 vaccines do not make you Bluetooth-enabled, as some have claimed on social media.

There is nothing in the vaccine that could possibly have anything to do with Bluetooth.https://t.co/fGbDK5gn63

And it prompted no end of comment as you might imagine.

Speak for yourself – Since my jab I’m able to connect my Spotify directly to my ears

Was it in Mono after your first Jab and then Stereo after your 2nd Jab by any chance

I'm disappointed really, if I was Bluetooth enabled I could connect to my phone and find it when I've forgotten where it is.

😂 I can’t believe you’ve had to fact check this, the state the human race is in!

But the great Professor Brian Cox surely said it best.

If you’re daft enough to believe this I’d imagine you’re too stupid to successfully pair yourself with another Bluetooth device anyway. https://t.co/SRb1PWI3yZ
