The fact that lawyers keep using FOIA for such purposes implies that they might be aware of this but are being misleading or dishonest. This misleading tactic can be effective, which is why it\u2019s important to set the record straight.<\/p>\n

An mRNA vaccine cannot alter your DNA. Your DNA is housed in the\u00a0nucleus<\/a>\u00a0of your cells and contains all the instructions for the development and functioning of your body. Messenger RNA, or mRNA, is\u00a0transcribed<\/a>\u00a0and carries those instructions outside the nucleus where they are implemented. The mRNA introduced by a vaccine cannot enter the nucleus where the DNA is housed.<\/p>\n

In addition, RNA, including mRNA, is single-stranded and cannot directly interact with double-stranded DNA. In order for RNA to interact with DNA, it must first be made into DNA\u2014 which requires an enzyme called reverse transcriptase. This enzyme is not even found in\u00a0human<\/a>\u00a0cells, so interaction is impossible. And if your genome cannot be not altered by mRNA from the vaccine, there is no alteration to pass down to your offspring.<\/p>\n

There is something that can potentially damage DNA, though:\u00a0SARS-CoV-2<\/a>, the virus that causes\u00a0COVID<\/a>.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
