Bizarre funeral car ad - "Do not get vaccinated"
A "Do Not Get Vaccinated" truck was spotted circling the streets of a North Carolina town. Many people thought this was another ad for anti-vaccines and that they rented a billboard in an attempt to persuade people not to get vaccinated.
The photo with the unusual message was shared on Twitter, and then spread to other social networks. At first glance it looks like a message from people who are against vaccination, but the truth is quite different.

However, the caption reads "Wilmore Funeral Home"
If you try to investigate this funeral company, you will find a black and white page that says: "Get vaccinated now. If not, see you soon "
I found the guy who paid to have the 'Don't get vaccinated' billboard driven around uptown Charlotte Sunday.
No, Wilmore Funeral Home is not real.
Yes, it is a pro-vaccine message.
