You may have seen videos circulating on the Internet that allege COVID vaccines are being used to inject individuals with microchip technology. You know, to track them and alert government officials of their whereabouts. But even though these claims sound absolutely ridiculous, some people still believe them.

Recently, Afghanistan veteran Patrick Loller got so sick and tired of hearing about this nonsense, he made a TikTok video to destroy the myth once and for all. Pointing out its flaws, Loller used his own experience from the army and made a really convincing (and entertaining) case in favor of common sense.

The COVID vaccine microchip conspiracy theories began emerging last year even before the vaccines were available. These theories maintained that vaccination was just an excuse to inject some type of microchip into you that could then allow others to track you and your behaviors.

For example, such claims appeared in the conspiracy theory-loaded “Planet Lockdown” video and, as reported by the Associated Press, Sandoval Iñiguez, an emeritus archbishop of the archdiocese of Guadalajara, had posted a video on Facebook in which he spoke of “the chip that they are planning to put in the vaccine to control you, it is the mark of the beast.” The irony, of course, is that he posted the video on Facebook, the platform that is definitely tracking you.

Even Bill Gates got dragged into the whole ordeal. In fact, one YouGov poll of 1,640 people (conducted in May 2020) suggests that at the time 28% of Americans believed that the billionaire wants to use vaccines to implant microchips in people – with the figure rising to 44% among Republicans.

Who knows how long this whole vaccine microchip ordeal will go on. Let’s just hope that Patrick’s video has at least made it shorter.

Patrick’s TikTok video already has over 1.7 million views
