In laymens terms, mRNA comes from the nucleus of our cells, the same place DNA is housed. DNA is to big to exit the nucleus but mRNA is a single strand and can exit to be translated and transcribed by ribosomes which in turn produces copies of the proteins read. Please correct me if I’m wrong but I believe this is a simple explanation of how mRNA is used. My question is how can mRNA change your DNA code? mRNA is small enough to exit the nucleus but I am unaware if there is a function of it re-entering. So is it safer to say that mRNA may enable the production of an unnatural protein which then changes a particular function in our bodies instead of saying it changes our DNA? If that’s the case can term GMO still be applied to those who have been vaccinated? Lastly, other than viral load what is the difference between our immune systems reacting naturally with KungFlu and reacting to the vaccine? Obviously the vaccine is not the same as the virus as it has extra ingredients but I am speaking strictly genetically has is it different? Can any docs or scientists help me out with my understanding? Thank you in advance.

As I understand it, you have a not-zero chance of having your DNA for SOME ceIIs get modified. The RNA strand persists in your body for an elongated amount of time but not indefinitely as I understand it, meaning to say if it stays where it's supposed to, only that area is affected.
PMC8299225. That being said, it comes from that article and I've admittedly not read it entirely just yet. Please do read up on it too.
Thank you, I’m checking it out too.
In other articles I’ve read they state that the mRNA dies off and doesn’t remain viable for long but that sounds subjective and suspect to me. In a natural occurring mRNA sure it happens every day. It’s why you don’t stay sick forever as processes cease protein production for particular needs but with a fully synthetic mRNA, who knows? The pharma company getting paid to make and sell it?
