Answer:

The most common myths are:

- C0vid2019 vaccines cause autism  

- C0vid2019 vaccines may modify your DNA

- C0vid2019 vaccines are unsafe

Explanation:

The most common myths associated with C0vid2019 vaccines are:  

1- C0vid2019 vaccines may cause autism: In 1998, Andrew Wakefield and colleagues published a controversial study in the Lancet where they suggested that the measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccine may cause autism in some children. However, it has been showed that this study was based on erroneous statements and therefore this publication was retracted.

2- C0vid2019 vaccine may modify your DNA: it has been suggested that vaccines based on viral vectors (e.g. adenoviruses) and mRNA vaccines may modify the DNA of cells. This statement is false because these technologies cannot alter the DNA sequence. These vaccines are based on the production of an mRNA sequence that is translated into a viral protein (spike protein) which triggers an immune response

- C0vid2019 vaccines are unsafe: some people believe that C0vid2019 vaccines are unsafe because they were developed quickly. However, this statement is false because all vaccines (including C0vid2019 vaccines) need to follow rigorous safety standards to be approved by governmental agencies (i.e., they approved all clinical trials).

Which of the following human activities MOST negatively affects natural climate change?
tino4ka555 [31]

The right answer is the burning of fossil fuels.

While all these proposals have a bad impact on the biosphere, Proposal B is the only one that has a direct link to climate change.

Air pollution by combustion is an alteration of air quality that can be characterized by measurements of chemical, biological or physical pollutants present in the air, with consequences that are detrimental to human health, to living beings , climate, or material goods.
