I’m not sure I understand my point either, assuming I had one! I was trying to say that I think the J&J vaccine is high-tech in that uses DNA in a way that is fairly new (although as another poster notes, used now in several other vaccines). So it’s not mRNA but it’s still (as I think I understand it) a gene manipulation deal of sorts. I’m no scientist - purely Bro Science for me.
The J&J Covid-19 vaccine uses a weakened DNA-based human adenovirus as the viral vector and encodes for a variant of the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein. The viral vector infects the host cell and travels to the nucleus where genes of the spike protein (artificially inserted into the adenovirus) are expressed. The antibodies to the spike are produced on the host cell surface.
The end result is the same as with the mRNA-based vaccines, trillions of spikes are produced in the body which then induce production of antibodies. But the spike protein itself is toxic, the fatal flaw in this novel technology. These spikes can circulate throughout the body causing inflammation. The spikes can persist in the body for months and cause various adverse reactions.
Thanks!
