The mRNA vaccine technology has been in development since the 1990s. Moderna has been working on an mRNA vaccine for influenza for over ten years. In addition, mRNA vaccines had been developed for SARS but not tested since SARS was eradicated before a vaccine became necessary. This is not new technology.
As for the clinical trial testing of the various Covid vaccines, they are as thoroughly tested as any other vaccine that gets regulatory approval. The pharmaceutical companies had to demonstrate to the FDA that the vaccines are safe and effective by submitting reams of data, just as they would for any other drug they are trying to bring to market. The reason the Covid vaccine testing was done in such a short time is that the Trump administration removed some of the red tape that slows down testing. Thus, researchers were able to run clinical trials concurrently when previously, they would have had to run them sequentially.
The FDA website contains letters of approval for every vaccine. These letters are quite detailed.

When charlatans create antivax misinformation, they count on the fact that the people they are targeting almost certainly will not fact-check (or even know how to fact-check). Plus, they tie the misinformation to politics in order to make their targets think that vaccination is all about governmental control rather than about public health. One of the goals of the antivax movement ever since it emerged following the smallpox vaccine rollout in 1796 is for people to die of infectious disease. They also profit from selling snake oil.
Thanks for the reply. But here’s the problem. Too many people on each side of the vaccine controversy have lied (or misrepresented) to us. So I no longer believe big pharma, the FDA, Fauci, etc. Too much money is floating around.
Think about those unexplained deaths among healthy young people. What’s going on here? Drug overdoses? A vax side effect? We need to know. Yet no one says a thing.
And as to the anti-vax charlatans, you bet they’re a problem. I’ve got a background in chemistry, and enjoy reading technical studies. Many studies cited by the anti-vaxxers are either complete trash or have been deliberately misquoted.
So who can you trust? As far as I can see, no one.
Just a suggestion - please note, these are PFIZER’S docs, the ones the court forced them to release when Pfizer & the FDA tried to keep them unavailable to the public:
Pfizer Documents Analysis Volunteers’ Reports eBook: Find Out What Pfizer, FDA Tried to Conceal
https://www.amazon.com/DailyClout-Documents-Analysis-Volunteers-Reports-ebook/dp/B0BSK6LV5D
“The Pfizer Reports book contains 50 reports written by the highly-credentialed War Room/DailyClout Pfizer Documents Analysis Project volunteers between March and December 2022. The reports are based on information in the primary source Pfizer documents released under court order by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, as well as on other key medical studies and literature that relate to Pfizer’s experimental gene therapy mRNA COVID vaccine. These important documents have been ignored by the mainstream media; however, to date, no one has challenged the accuracy of what they report. Now, for the first time, the 2022 Pfizer Reports are available in book format.”
