News Claim: Many types of messages keep going viral on social media. Now a new message is going viral on Facebook, WhatsApp, and Twitter. This message claiming anesthetics/anesthetic can be life-threatening for Covid-19 vaccinated people. The message might add to already prevailing vaccine hesitancy. The post was shared on Twitter which says "Anyone who has been vaccinated against coronavirus is prohibited from taking any type of anesthetic, even local anesthetics or dentist's anesthetics, because this poses a great danger to the life of the vaccinated person and is highly dangerous."
News Verification: The Indian government's PIB fact check has also made an awareness post against the false claim, with a caption, "A post claiming that anesthetics can be life-threatening for #COVID19 vaccinated people is doing the rounds on social media. This claim is #FAKE".
