What is the % for natural immunity?
I mean it has been headline news when someone reacquired COVID. Why in the hell do they want people with natural immunity to take the vaccine? I saw a study where even the first shot increased antibody numbers by orders of magnitude in the recovered and orders of magnitude over the two shot set vaccinated.
On the genetic changes... My understanding is the first shot causes your body to produce the covid spike proteins so your body has the “invaders” to train the immune response on. How does the first shot cause your body to make something if it isnt messing with the instruction manual in the cells? It isnt as if that “page” to produce that spike protein is there, or is it? I mean at least conceptually I understand how RNA collects amino acids and how when a point is hit the protein folds (forms) releasing the RNA to rinse and repeat. Does the RNA not persist and is there no modification of the core DNA instruction set nor the Mitochondrial instruction sets?
It works exactly the same way the virus does using the cells mechanism to make spike proteins instead of entire viruses. There is no alteration of your mrna or dna
The vaccine does NOT change your DNA and it’s not gene therapy or any touch nonsense. The vaccine contains mRNA. This is a molecule that already is in each and every cell of your body. Your DNA encodes the sequence of amino acids that are needed to produce the essential proteins your body requires. The DNA is isolated from the cellular mechanisms called ribosomes that actually produce the proteins. Therefore a mechanism that acts as a messenger is needed - that’s mRNA (the m actually stands for messenger). When a protein is synthesized your body makes an mRNA strand that corresponds to your DNA. Your DNA remains safely isolated to be reused over and over. The mRNA goes to the ribosome and is used as the template for building the protein.
The vaccine does NOT change your DNA instructions. Essentially the vaccine provides a new messenger to the ribosomes. The ribosomes use the vaccine template to produce the viral spike protein that generates the immune response.
In less technical terms, your body makes proteins from a blueprint (DNA). The blueprint remains locked up in a safe (the cell nucleus) so it isn’t damaged. When the factory (ribosomes) gets an order to produce protein, it asks for a photocopy (mRNA) of the blueprint so it knows how to proceed. The photocopies are destroyed after production (your cells’ enzymes that break the mRNA down), but the original remains. The vaccine simply gives a different photocopy to the ribosome to work from, resulting in a viral protein being made.
Ironically, those afraid of having something modify their genetic code should be FIRST in line to get the vaccine. Regardless of how lethal the virus is, a viral infection does in fact modify your DNA. That’s how viruses work. Viruses are really nothing but a piece of genetic material wrapped in a protein coat. They can’t do anything living cells do, specifically they can’t reproduce without the help of a cell. They use their protein coat to enter a cell, get into the nucleus, and incorporate their genetic material into the host cell’s genome. Once that occurs, the cell no longer functions normally, but instead turns into a “virus factory”, producing multiple new viruses. Eventually the infected cell ruptures and dies, spreading all the new viruses to other cells.
It’s the viral infection, not the vaccine, that actually changes your genetic code.
