Rumours on social media claim that President Trump tweeted “my blood IS the vaccine” after doctors claim the president has now recovered from his earlier COVID-19 diagnosis.
Examples as they appeared on social media are below.
While President Trump has said on a handful of occasions that he may be immune to COVID-19 after recovering from an infection in the first week of October 2020, there is no record of the president claiming that his blood is a vaccine to COVID-19.
We searched the president’s Twitter feed as well as a number of online services that archive the president’s tweets (even those that have been removed or deleted) and the above tweet does not appear.
There are a number of prank websites that easily let hoaxers create fake screenshots of tweets that never really existed, and it is likely that one of those was used to start this hoax.
We rank the claim false.
