British-Guyanese actress Letitia Wright has been scolded by fans after sharing a controversial video Thursday with unsubstantiated claims about the coronavirus vaccine. The actress, who starred alongside the in the blockbuster film «Black Panther,» shared an hourlong YouTube video with her 360,000 Twitter followers. In the video from On The Table, a discussion channel, host Tomi Arayomi voiced unsubstantiated claims about the dangers of taking vaccines. «I don’t understand vaccines medically, but I’ve always been a little bit of a skeptic of them,» Arayomi said, stating that he doesn’t know if he can trust a vaccine for coronavirus. At one point, he says those who decide to get vaccinated should «hope to God it doesn’t make extra limbs grow.» Wright immediately found herself in hot water with her fans, who condemned the star for using her platform to share misinformation. The post even drew criticism from «Iron Man» actor Don Cheadle, who described the video as «hot garbage» after Twitter users tagged him in several posts, beckoning him to respond.
