This is a great article that will help push back against the tidal wave of fear the Anti Vaxxers will try to create over mRNA vaccines .
Recently, I’ve gotten an influx of questions about how we can really be sure that mRNA vaccines will not affect our DNA. In my prior post on the subject I wrote:Another concern raised has been the idea that mRNA can somehow alter the host’s genome. That would actually be super cool and be huge for gene therapy (and I could finally give myself the giant bat wings I’ve always wanted) but this is not so. This is ordinarily impossible except if there is also a reverse transcriptase enzyme present that produces DNA from the RNA template, which is how retroviruses work. There is no such risk with any mRNA vaccine candidate. mRNA vaccines act entirely within the cytosol of the cell- they do not go near the nucleus where all the DNA is. That’s actually a major advantage of RNA-based vaccines over DNA ones.
