It’s like arguing with someone who can xerox a page out of a book but doesn’t understand it. You have had enough time to take a basic biology course. But instead of educating yourself but you just apparently enjoy spreading the inaccuracies of others.

JnJ used a adenovirus vector to place a DS DNA encoding for spike protein within the nucleus of the cell. Absent specific reverse transcriptase or integrase to graft the DNA sequence into the human genome sequence of the recipient of the vaccination to correct s genetic flaw, it is not gene therapy as the DNA is merely translated then transcribed. It is not integrated. The DNA is a gene for the spike protein by a very coarse definition.

Gene therapy is by definition the treatment of a genetic disease by inserting a corrected piece of DNA into the human genes in order to correct the molecular level of pathology. There are clinical trials underway for such gene therapy you can go read them. But your incomplete understanding of what genes and therapies are is demonstrated in your absurd question at a lunar altitude that requires a more granular level of understanding.

The JnJ vaccine is not a therapy for genetic disease. It does not integrate into human DNA sequences. If it did, genetic sequencing of a vaccination person with JnJ would demonstrate the integration and subsequent transcription and translation of spike proteins at exponential numbers over time. There is no evidence of this. This, your statement is incorrect.

And yes, I did do a literature search prior to answering this in order to make sure I was properly educating you.

Getting one species to express the genes of another creates a transgenic specimen. Passing it the gene on to future generations is not required to be gene therapy.

The adenovirus vector approach is used in gene therapy. But you are correct that in this case the gene therapy approach is being used on healthy people. It is not to treat a disease.

Would you prefer all the genetic jabs to be transgenic human jabs?

Btw- you have a medical degree, but I also have advanced degrees, including degrees in microbiology and genetics. You do not have a monopoly on intelligence, education, or experience on this topic.

Adenovirus vector technology is a gene therapy technology. NIH link above…
