If I remember correctly they used RNA from the virus instead of DNA to create the vaccine, that's why it was able to be quickly produced. But hey I'm not a scientist or doctor soooo.....

And also I could die in a month from covid, dunno.

If you're not a doctor or a scientist, why do you think you know enough to question a vaccine that has been approved by the doctors and scientists at the FDA and has shown a remarkable efficacy in the real world.

Your actions represent nothing other than ignorance and selfishness. Period.

I've decided there are three primary reasons why we hear the nonsense we hear coming out of conservatives and Republicans on Covid-19, the election results, Biden's intellectual capacity, and pretty much everything else coming out of the right in this country...

They're stupid enough to believe it
They're crazy enough to believe it
They don't believe it but they're sociopathic enough to say it anyway if they think it will get them what they want.

A WashPost study shows that all 21 states where the highest percentage of adults have received at least one vaccine shot were won by Biden (plus DC). All 17 with the lowest percentage were won by Trump except GA (which FWIW has both a GOP Governor and legislature). And these morons call themselves pro-life. Idiots.

My nephew, who researches infectious disease and worked at the NIH, says that the basic formula for these vaccines has been in the works for a long time. What happened during Warp Speed is that the scientists applied that research specifically to this virus. It isn't like they came up with this vaccine over night.

Certainly ever since research biochemists all across the country began their work on crispr technology.

It was an Hungarian immigrant who came to the USA in 1985 who was the brains behind the mRNA vaccine technology.
