🤖 Conclusion [10/100]: The statement "Vaccines kill" is highly misleading and not supported by credible scientific evidence. While it is true that, like any medical intervention, vaccines can have rare serious side effects and there have been very isolated cases (such as with the Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine) where a causal link with death has been established, these cases are extremely rare and vaccines overall have prevented millions of deaths worldwide. The claim ignores the overwhelming evidence that vaccines save lives far more than they cause harm. The reference to 'Dissolving Illusions' reflects an anti-vaccine viewpoint and is not recognized as a scientific authority. Given the weight of evidence presented by major health organizations and fact-checkers, the truthfulness of the statement is very low. Score: 10/100.
