After getting an onslaught of criticism online and in the media, M.I.A. is backtracking on her recent comments about vaccines. The topic of conversation every day, almost all day, is COVID-19. Tens of millions of people are under "Stay At Home" orders by their respective governments as researchers attempt to find a cure for coronavirus. Last week, M.I.A. took to her Twitter to share that she'd rather see the grave than use a vaccine.

"If I have to choose the vaccine or chip I'm gonna choose death," she tweeted. M.I.A. followed up her ominous anti-vaxx statement encouraging her followers, telling them not to live in fear. On Friday (April 3), the rapper returned to clarify her true feelings about vaccinations as she explained that she's not anti-vaxx at all.

"I'm not against vaccines. I'm against companies who care more for profit then humans," M.I.A. tweeted to a Twitter user. "I care for better track record that proves this. I care that African countries are not always the testing ground. I don't want it coming from banks / tech /hedge fund sector and I want a choice." Check out her original tweet and her follow-up below. Would you reject vaccination for COVID-19 if you contracted the virus and there was a cure?

She’s been attempting to live a quiet, non-reality television life as a mother of three, but Erica Dixon continues to make headlines. The Love & Hip Hop Atlanta star has been co-parenting with her ex-fiancé, rapper Lil Scrappy, and his wife Bambi. Last year, Erica surprised the public with news that she was pregnant with twins, but she made sure to keep the identity of her boyfriend under lock and key.

Recently, Erica became the target of social media after she shared that she’d decided against vaccinating her twin girls. “My twins are 8 months now. Never been vaccinated and have never been sick,” she tweeted. The anti-vax movement is on the rise so while it isn’t surprising to hear of more new mothers choosing not to vaccinate, the public backlash is often swift. Since she shared her anti-vax stance, Erica told TheJasmineBRAND that people have wished death on her girls.

“I really didn’t know it was so a controversial subject,” she reportedly said. “To each it’s own but mine won’t be vaccinated. And for those saying negative and disrespectful things – [it’s] hilarious. My children would be nowhere near them or their’s anyway.” She added, “The twins’ father is vegan. He definitely is against the twins getting vaccinated,” she said. “I went vegan prior to my pregnancy and throughout as well…I did some research and asked questions as they saw their pediatrician…My research consisted of reading about both vaccinated and unvaccinated children, [and] how it would affect them when it came to daycare and school, side effects, risks etc.”

Erica added that her girls will be able to attended school like other children, but she will need to first sign a waiver. “We have to learn to agree to disagree without being disrespectful,” Erica added. “Especially those that wish death on my children because they aren’t vaccinated. I would never wish death on anyone’s child – vaccinated or not. Then again, the internet gives a lot of people heart because they wouldn’t dare say half of what that say social media to my face.”

While Lira Galore is going through it with her ex Pierre "Pee" Thomas, since she's accused him of abusing her while she was pregnant with their daughter, the 26-year-old still has all the time in the world to express her thoughts on Twitter, as well as some looming questions. Lira recently shared a tweet asking her 127.8K followers what their thoughts on vaccinating their newborns are and her simple inquiring lead to an online roast session. 

Some of the responses were more serious as some users vehemently expressed how Lira should not give her child any vaccinations as it may lead to an unhealthy diagnosis later in the child's life. Other users said the choice should be up to the parents and shouldn't be judged. Some users, however, laughed at the fact that someone who has seemingly been under the knife to enhance her figure is now questioning vaccinations. "Lira done pumped her body with every artificial product there is for no other reasons than aesthetics but she’s worried about vaccines that have a purpose against disease. Ok," one user wrote.
