im going to get it. just saying the premise of these articles is completely wrong. and we have been hearing about a lot of issues with the vaccines.

Its probably safe for 99% of people.

There is probably a reason why this technology was never used before though. mRNA technology was first discovered in 1989. Either the technology was never safe enough to tech transfer it or there have been a lot of advances since then.

The reason it hasn't been used is because the process of safely introducing mRNA into the cell in a way that maintains the fidelity of the code didn't exist until just a few years ago. My lab was working on it in graduate school as late as 2016. We were using a different technology to do so, but that speaks to how there wasn't this technology at all even 5 years ago.

There have been absolutely mammoth advances in DNA and RNA delivery into cells, and that's why we currently have it in vaccines. Covid sped up the development of mRNA vaccines by like 5 years at most. We were going to see them very soon regardless.

That's pretty awesome.

I went for a solo run this morning without a mask. I'm very worried is this ok? I think I'm gonna quadruple mask next time to offset the effect

You'll be dead in a week. Next time, you won't do something that's so fucking irresponsible.

Indeed it is. The best part is that direct introduction of mRNA is likely to have less side effects than traditional vaccines, since your body is being introduced to the agent in a similar way to a natural infection but with a much smaller dose, and the vaccines can be reformulated in very short order since the only thing that changes in the formulation is the order of nucleotides. There's no need to re-synthesize protein and see how every protein interacts with every cell. The synthesized protein is sequestered in individual cells and is then shepherded by other cells to be introduced to your immune system in a controlled way, so the odds of a spike protein escaping into the blood is much lower than runaway viral infection.


Traditional vaccine would go

Protein introduced to your muscle tissue outside of cells --> Protein eaten by macrophage --> macrophage introduces it to a B cell which makes antibodies

mRNA goes

mRNA introduced into cell --> Protein is synthesized by cell --> Cell is killed by NK cell and given to a T-Cell --> T-Cell gives it to a B Cell which makes antibodies


By bringing T-cells into the mix you amplify the immune response in a more specific way, and you avoid ever having the protein in systemic circulation.

why do people keep saying the vaccine is free it was not free was paid with our tax $$$ still go get your bloody shot if your trust it if not enjoy what happens

that's basically how you summon candyman.
