evidence: FULL CLAIM: "COVID-19 is not a respiratory virus of any kind, it is actually venom poison, and they’re using, I believe, synthesized peptides and proteins of venoms of snakes and they’re administering them and targeting them to certain people [...] this is the most obvious bioweapon ever"; "The mRNA inside of the Moderna and Pfizer shot is actually derived from snake venom"; L-amino-acid oxidase (LAAO), which is found in the COVID-19 vaccine and snake venom, inhibits syncytium production and increases the risk of miscarriage by interfering with placenta development [...] In May 2023, the Stew Peters Show published a sequel to "Watch The Water", with Ardis claiming that the COVID-19 vaccines increased the risk of miscarriage due to the presence of L-amino-acid oxidase, which he claimed is also found in snake venom and that would interfere with placenta formation. Ardis made the same claim a few months earlier on the podcast "Unrestricted Truths with James Grundvig", which was shared by other websites associated with health misinformation. [...] In the sequel to "Watch The Water", Ardis built on his earlier claims about snake venom and COVID-19, now asserting that L-amino-acid oxidase, which is present in snake venom, is also present in COVID-19 vaccines and increases the risk of miscarriage.
