The Daily Sceptic is a blog created by British commentator Toby Young. It has published misinformation about COVID-19 vaccines[9] and engaged in climate change denial.[16]

The Daily Sceptic article states that the increased number of deaths corresponded with the timing of the roll out of Covid-19 vaccinations among this age group and asks if this is "real-world evidence that over the summer the vaccines killed nine times as many 15-19 year-olds as Covid did?" ... There is also no evidence that this is caused by Covid-19 vaccines.

The Daily Sceptic, a website that often propagates COVID-19 misinformation, has published a misleading article regarding vaccine effectiveness.

Social media users are sharing an online article that claims the "COVID vaccine destroys natural immunity" and creates "negative immunity" based on misinterpretation of a recent study in the New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM). The misleading headline and link to an article published by the Daily Sceptic has been viewed more than 20,000 times on Facebook ... and has been shared more than 11,000 times on Twitter.

It's not surprising that the usual suspects are amplifying this "study" as slam-dunk evidence that mRNA-based COVID-19 vaccines are dangerous and do more harm than good. I surveyed some of the usual suspects, and here's just a little of what I found: ...

An article written by Will Jones for the website The Daily Sceptic, promoting this claim, also went viral through social media posts... Jones, who holds a PhD in political philosophy, asserted that the study meant it was now a "firmly established" fact that COVID-19 vaccines are responsible for sudden deaths. ... However, experts who weren't involved in the study found that such an interpretation isn't substantiated by the work actually done in the study.
