EXCELLENT INTERVIEW

Kevin McKernan is the genomics scientist who first discovered plasmid DNA contamination in the mRNA Pfizer and Moderna Covid vaccines. Kevin has been working in his field for 25 years, having managed R&D for the Human Genome Project at Whitehead Institute/MIT, and now heading up cannabis and hemp science company Medicinal Genomics as founder and Chief Science Officer. Kevin holds a B.S. in Biology from Emory University with a focus on cloning and expressing Norepinephrine Transporters In this episode, we discuss the following:

Kevin was the first scientist to discover plasmid DNA contamination in the mRNA Pfizer and Moderna Covid-19 vaccines, in February 2023. Kevin tells us it was an accident and explains why he was using these vaccines while working on another project.
Kevin explains that he found the plasmid DNA at levels that should not be in the vaccine. The political climate in peer review, is slow and not favourable, so he decided to find a way to make it easier for other scientists to reproduce his work. Reproduction is better then peer review.
Kevin’s findings have now been reproduced by other scientists in South Carolina (Prof Buckhaults), Massachusetts, Ontario (David Speicher), Denmark, Germany (Dr Konig), and Japan.
Kevin has published his work, it is a preprint still, see link below. David Speicher has published his work, and investigation into 27 vials. See link below.
Pfizer did not use the same method of production of the vaccine for its clinical trial (process 1) and the rollout (process 2). Process 1 used PCR to create the DNA. Process 2 used Bacteria Ecoli and Plasmid DNA. The regulators knew this, but the public did not.

Unlike Pfizer, Moderna used the same method for production of their vaccine in the trials as in the rollout. They also used Bacteria and plasmid DNA.

Kevin explains how the mRNA is made in manufacturing using the Ecoli and the Plasmid DNA. It is not easy getting rid of the bacteria and Plasmid DNA. It is clear from Kevin’s tests that some of the Plasmid DNA is trapped inside the lipid nanoparticle .
Kevin did not measure the bacterial endotoxin, (which is leftover after the Ecoli burst open), but explains that the LAL assay used to measure it by Pfizer is not good enough, there are better tools.
Kevin tells us that Pfizer used an enzyme is used to break the Plasmid DNA up. The enzyme being used is not the best one for the job.
10 ng of DNA per injection, is the limit set by the regulatory authorities as acceptable, however, Kevin tells us that this is the old limit used for the older vaccines. The mRNA vaccines are entirely different as the DNA is inside the LNP and gains entry into the cell. In addition, the plasmid DNA has been broken up into pieces, with sticky ends, which makes it more dangerous then the DNA of the old vaccines. The acceptable threshold of DNA contamination needs to be changed.
We discuss the tests that can be done on vaccinees to see if their DNA has been affected.
Kevin tells us that Pfizer used an enzyme (DNAse 1) to break the Plasmid DNA up. It is not the best one for the job. Part of the problem is that the RNA and DNA combine to make hybrids. Better enzymes could be used.
Kevin reviews with us the Pfizer quality control test of a Pfizer batch, FL7649, which was released as part of a freedom of information request in Feb 2022, to the TGA, the Australian regulatory authority. There was a different assay used to measure the RNA, to that used to measure the DNA, and it looks like an intent to deceive. Deliberately making the amount of DNA contamination look smaller then it is, to pass the regulations. This batch has a lot of adverse events recorded against it.
We discuss the Health Canada emails, which revealed that Health Canada was not informed by Pfizer that the SV40 promoter was in the DNA plasmid. But worse then that, Kevin believes that someone at Pfizer had to actually remove the SV40 promoter from the annotated diagram sent to Health Canada. Health Canada confirmed that the SV40 promoter is in the DNA plasmid sequence sent by Pfizer. So the sequence sent by Pfizer did not match the annotated diagram that they sent.
We discuss the SV40 (Simian Virus 40) history with the polio vaccine. Is the SV40 promoter dangerous. Why?
Kevin states that the SV40 promoter was not necessary for this DNA plasmid for the vaccine. Why is it there?
Kevin states that contrary to what Health Canada states in their emails, the DNA fragments are dangerous. They have sticky ends and can integrate into the human genome.
We discuss the departure in medical ethics that this rollout of these mRNA vaccines represents.
