"My cousin in Trinidad won't get the vaccine because his friend got it and became impotent. His testicles became swollen."

Britain's Prime Minister Boris Johnson was drawn into commenting on the viral tweet, which went out to Minaj's 22.7 million followers and was retweeted 117,000 times. When asked about it at a press conference, he said that he would rather get Covid-19 information from Dr Nikki Kanani, NHS England's medical director of primary care, than from Minaj.

"There is a lot of misinformation, mostly on social media, and the only way we know how to counter mis- and disinformation is to provide a lot of correct information and to essentially debunk these kind of claims which may be innocent on her part."

she should be thinking twice about propagating information that really has no basis except for a one-off anecdote, and that is not what science is all about.

Excellent example on social media/celebrities propagating fakes news (misinformation / disinformation) .....people not buying into science...
