People on the internet who are against the covid shot pretty much conflate ALL mRNA technology together 'as bad'. There are some issues with it, but their beef is really with the covid vaccine's mRNA, which is an instruction that tells cells to produce an antigen that is very similar to the covid virus spike protein, but slightly modified. The industry changed their story on that. Initially, it was the covid spike protein, and then they said it was almost identical but modified to be less pathogenic. We don't know what this means, even today. It's all clouded.
My point is that mRNA is just an instruction. The mRNA technology is a bunch of biotechnology tricks to transfect it into cells. There are problems with the technology itself though, that are a bigger superset of problems than with the covid mRNA. Here is a not-all-inclusive list of those problems.
the mRNA transfected via liposomes has no cell-type SPECIFICITY right now, meaning that they go into any and all cells, and that will yield unforeseen consequences, especially if they go into immortal or semi-immortal cells
a) like stem cells
b) progenitor cells
c) long lived cells (up to 7 yrs, for example)
There is no off switch (mRNA transfected cells that are modified, continue the instruction until the cell dies or is destroyed)
There is no UNDO switch (same problem as above)
This is not specific to mRNA, but they are using pseudouridine in the process of this technology, and we now know that this molecule causes random mutations in the copy process inside the cell, and this happens due to frameshifting. This causes weird proteins to be made, and those do GOD KNOWS WHAT in the body (usually cancer, or worse, the rise of a prion or prion like infection)
To make the mRNA for the gene therapies, they use either aborted caucasian lung cancer cells or they use monkey cancer cells SV40; and the vaccine will have some of those left behind 'as scaffolding' for the technology, because apparently they can't be filtered out! Do you want monkey or baby lung cancer cells injected in you, even if they are 'attenuated' (made inactive)?
They said the mRNA vaccine would go into your deltoid and stay there. It did not. It went all over the body, and was unselective. Meaning it ALWAYS goes thru your heart and ALWAYS goes to your brain. The technology has to be made so that it doesn't damage these organs in any way.
Despite the enormous problems above, it's a great technology
(I'm not being facetious, we can overcome these issues)
It doesn't help that Pfizer changed the definition of mRNA from messenger to modified RNA. That is a sneaky move and if people don't know this, they're assumptions are flawed.
