The mRNA Vaccines Are By Definition A Virus
NCBI ^

Posted on 06/06/2021 7:57:55 AM PDT by Enlightened1

The Pfizer and Moderna vaccines are based on "messenger" RNA. The RNA is encapsulated in a lipid layer consisting of propylene glycol (a petrochemical).

This is the biological definition of a virus. (In this case a synthetic virus.)

Medical Microbiology, 4th Edition:

Virus Structure and Function

Viruses are small obligate intracellular parasites, which by definition contain either a RNA or DNA genome surrounded by a protective, virus-coded protein coat. Viruses may be viewed as mobile genetic elements, most probably of cellular origin and characterized by a long co-evolution of virus and host. For propagation viruses depend on specialized host cells supplying the complex metabolic and biosynthetic machinery of eukaryotic or prokaryotic cells. A complete virus particle is called a virion. The main function of the virion is to deliver its DNA or RNA genome into the host cell so that the genome can be expressed (transcribed and translated) by the host cell. The viral genome, often with associated basic proteins, is packaged inside a symmetric protein capsid. The nucleic acid-associated protein, called nucleoprotein, together with the genome, forms the nucleocapsid. In enveloped viruses, the nucleocapsid is surrounded by a lipid bilayer derived from the modified host cell membrane and studded with an outer layer of virus envelope glycoproteins.

“Aren’t all vaccines just watered down versions of the actual virus”

No. Many vaccines use only a certain identifying feature of the the target virus (called an epitope) - just enough for the immune system to recognize, but without all the rest of the virus (such as its ability to replicate).

These epitopes can be spliced onto common harmless viruses as carriers (like the Russian Sputnik V, the AstraZeneca or the Chinese COVID-19 vaccines).

The mRNA vaccines instruct ribosomes to produce just the desired epitope - fresh perfect copies, not degraded in storage or handling, and free of other viral components, that might have unwanted or unknown effects. Whole virus vaccines (especially whole coronavirus vaccines) can have lots of side effects, triggered by other features of the virus, not needed to develop effective immunity. That is an inherent safety advantage of the mRNA vaccine approach, over the use of whole virus.

The mRNA vaccines are like blueprints or work orders to the ribosomes (the factories within cells). While the mRNA vaccines are circulating (half life ten hours), the ribosomes will produce an epitope of COVID-19 (a snippet off the head of the spike protein, that COVID uses to attach, like a key into a lock).

After the mRNA vaccine itself (rather quickly) degrades away, the ribosomes stop producing the epitope off the spike protein head, but those spike proteins produced circulate until they themselves are degraded a bit more slowly, while the immune system learns to recognize them.

You can also leave the vaccine on a counter top all day and it will not infect. single person. I love what gets passed around here as science

Propylene glycol, eh?
So, my vaping is immunizing everyone around me.
Behold superpowers!

I didn’t say people who aren’t vaccinated are anti-vaxxers. I said morons that say the vaccines are actually viruses are anti-vaxxers.

Not.

Viruses replicate inside a host. mRNA vaccine doesn’t.

If you can’t enlighten us perhaps you can ask Jim to change your user name to ‘dumbeddown1’ to better reflect your diminished intellect.

Footage just released by CNN captures replicated mutant vaxxer identified as the previously human named House Harkonnen, just two hours after receiving the vaccine.

Sounds legit.

Honestly at this point the conspiracy believing idiots who say things like “they’re not vaccines” are the sheep. You’re the being led around by your nose.

Honestly, you're wrong.

“Because you know, putting infected COVID patients into enclosed nursing homes just wasn’t enough.”

The mother of one of our DIL’s died in a NJ nursing home due to their governor in late March of the pandemic. She was sent from her NH nursing home to a local hospital and sent back to the Nursing Home to die. She was then put on fentanyl, narcotics, Versed and Oxygen at the nursing home.
My wife, an RN for about 50+ years wondered what the hell was going on. I told her, that nursing home had become a hospice. The woman, a mother of a DIL died a few days later without family or friends.

Here in Californicator, one my best friends in our church and social life was in a very expensive senior citizen home/place with critical care beds. He had severe Parkinson’s and was in one of those critical care beds.

They moved in a patient discharged from a local hospital, to about 2 doors away away from our friend. The patient survived and my friend died from you know what.

I’m sure that these 2 cases, we know about are just the tip of the Covid Iceberg in many of our nursing homes.

Just pointing out a fact seldom noted. Carry on.

Agree with you. I’m a healthy 63 year old who is not anti-vaccine. I ride a bicycle 100-150 miles per week and use power meters and a heart rate monitor and record all the data.

As such I know what is normal for me with respect to average heart rate vs. watts/KG body weight and quite knowledgeable on how I normally feel after a (for example) 30 mile ride with 3 or 4 climbs totaling 2500 feet on ascent. I can say without fear of being laughed at by those who know that I’m a decent hobby class athlete.

Since receiving the vaccine four months ago I have basically lost my MoJo. Through much hard work I can now ride at almost pre-vaccine levels but my leg muscles feel like mush and my average heart rate is elevated approx 10 beats per minute.

“…whence do they obtain the lipid proteins…

Oops… “lipid proteins” should only read “lipids”.

Nothing to with being anti-vax! Has everything to do with not wanting experimental “vaccines” that haven’t been fully tested for long term safety. If you want to get them..fine but stop the nonsense.

The snippet of COVID spike protein head that is produced in the ribosomes (not the nucleus), is not the mRNA vaccine.

The mRNA itself degrades (half life ten hours), and is not replenished or reproduced in any way.

Say, Professor Bobo. Whee did you take your PHD in virology and immunology?

Can you link some of your published work, papers, and studies? I would like to know more about the esteemed vax expert known by his friends as Bobo of FreeRepublic.

Thanks in advance, Professor.

Your friend and admirer, Bagster

The anti-vaxxers are the ones spreading nonsense. According to your logic we shouldn’t administer the vaccines until after years of long term testing. How many will die while we spend 10 or 15 years of testing?
