Good Morning Britain has been hit with 2,400 OfCom complaints after discussion about coronavirus between Dr Hilary Jones and Richard Madeley sparked fury.
On November 1, the TV doctor was discussing the coronavirus yellow card reporting system which makes allegations about the risks of vaccination claiming to be from the Government.
The 68-year-old has said the leaflets were 'complete misinformation' sparking a furious reaction from viewers.
It comes as Richard heads into the I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here camp alongside nine other celebrities from Sunday night (Nov 21).
During the broadcast, Dr. Hilary said: “Beware of bogus letter drops, which are complete nonsense. This is complete misinformation.”
He added: “It looks like a Government UK yellow card reporting scheme for adverse reactions to any kind of medicines or vaccines. But this purports to talk about all sorts of adverse reactions to vaccines, which are completely bogus and a hoax.”
He continued: “This would put a lot of people off the vaccine, dangerously, because it’s complete misinformation.”
Madeley then ripped one of the leaflets in half.
The complaints have risen from 1400 last week to 2400 this week, and the media watchdog hasn't yet revealed whether an investigation had been launched.
Good Morning Britain airs weekdays from 6am on ITV.
