There are multiple covid vaccines.
The one about whom the rumour of “it uses aborted baby parts” is the AstraZeneca vaccine
AstraZeneca did use the HEK 293 cell line to manufacture its vaccine (and Pfizer/BioNTech and Moderna in the design of their vaccines). These cells originate from a baby which was aborted in the Netherlands in 1973.
The baby was not aborted for the purpose of vaccine research.
Over the decades that followed, these cells have been cloned and replicated, many times. Dr Paul Offit, an immunisation expert from the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia who sits on the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) vaccine advisory committee, describes these as “standardized cell lines”. Professor Helen Petousis Harris says the cells used today are “distant descendants” of the original cells. They are from decades-old, long over abortions, and researchers do not use fetal cells from the present day.
The vaccine does not “contain” the aborted baby’s cellular material. The viral molecules grown in these cells are chemically and physically separated from the cells in which they were incubated and do not make it into the final product.
I don’t care if it was cloned 5 million times. I will not touch anything that got its start from an aborted baby. If people die from the vaccine, oh well.
They’re still used.
