In recent months, two vaccines developed by Pfizer and Moderna have been approved for emergency use by the FDA in the United States. These vaccines are different from traditional vaccines in that they use pieces of genetic code from the virus to train your body to recognize and fight the virus. This is a new technology, and so you might be wondering - how do mRNA vaccines work? Let's break it down.
We Are All Cells - Which Means We Can be Affected by the Vaccine
Your body is made up of cells, which contain DNA. This DNA contains the instructions for making proteins, which perform many functions in your body. Messenger RNA (mRNA) is a temporary copy of a section of DNA. It's called a "messenger" because it carries the instructions from the DNA out of the nucleus of the cell so that proteins can be made.
Viruses hijack our cells and force them to make copies of the viral genetic material instead of our own. The goal of an mRNA vaccine is to deliver pieces of the virus's genetic material into our cells so that they can produce viral proteins. This trains our immune system to recognize these viral proteins and fight off infections from real viruses in the future.
Have Scientists positively identified the COVID-19 Virus?
The first step in creating an mRNA vaccine is to identify a section of viral genetic code that will provoke an immune response. This sequence is then transcribed into mRNA and encapsulated in a lipid nanoparticle. When this mixture is injected into human cells, it enters the nucleus and directs the cells to produce viral proteins. As these proteins are produced, they also stimulate an immune response.
Try to find evidence that spike proteins are dangerous
Well, when you go online to try and find current reports suggesting that the COVID vaccines are dangerous - good luck. If you are alive, you are hearing about all types of problems associated with the vaccine - including many deaths of healthy, young people suffering heart attacks. However, that info is being scrubbed by the thugs at Google to protect their primary investment - vaccines. I was able to find a little info:
“The COVID-19 pandemic necessitated the rapid production of vaccines aimed at the production of neutralizing antibodies against the COVID-19 spike protein required for the corona virus binding to target cells. The best well-known vaccines have utilized either mRNA or an adenovirus vector to direct human cells to produce the spike protein against which the body produces mostly neutralizing antibodies. However, recent reports have raised some skepticism as to the biologic actions of the spike protein and the types of antibodies produced.
One paper reported that certain antibodies in the blood of infected patients appear to change the shape of the spike protein so as to make it more likely to bind to cells, while other papers showed that the spike protein by itself (without being part of the corona virus) can damage endothelial cells and disrupt the blood-brain barrier (italics mine).
These findings may be even more relevant to the pathogenesis of long-COVID syndrome that may affect as many as 50% of those infected with SARS-CoV-2.”
The body recognizes that these proteins shouldn't be there, and responds by producing antibodies to fight them off. This process trains our immune system to recognize real viruses in the future and mount an effective response.
Are the Spike Proteins Dangerous?
Read the results from a current Yale Medicine article:
“Concern has continued to grow over a small, but growing number of cases of a rare, but serious blood clotting disorders associated with the Johnson & Johnson coronavirus vaccine. In May, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) put new restrictions on who can get the J&J vaccine, based on a fresh review of data on the life-threatening blood clots that have been associated with the vaccine.”
Hmmmm. Who is restricted? “The latest decision restricts access of the vaccine to adults 18 and older who specifically request the J&J shot or who cannot have the other available vaccines for medical reasons” (italics mine).
So now that there is a problem, you can’t get it.
“The vaccine’s popularity never recovered. As of Dec. 15, (2020) there have been 284 million doses of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine given in the U.S., compared to 186 million doses of the Moderna vaccine, and just 17 million of the J&J shot.”
How Well Did Pfizer Do With the Vaccine?
Pfizer’s 2021 revenue was $81.3 billion, roughly double its revenue in 2020, when its top sellers were a pneumonia vaccine, the cancer drug Ibrance, and the fibromyalgia treatment Lyrica, which had gone off-patent.
Now its mRNA vaccine holds 70% of the U.S. and European markets. And its antiviral Paxlovid is the pill of choice to treat early symptoms of covid. This year, the company expects to rake in more than $50 billion in global revenue from the two medications alone.

I hope to write more about the government overreach that occurred during this pandemic - so called - in the future.
Full disclosure: I contracted COVID-19 (I guess) in 2020 and was out for two weeks. Almost went to the hospital but my doctor (who had it at the same time) said don’t go to the hospital unless you stop breathing. Smart woman! She knew. You went to the hospital, were put on a ventilator, and were almost guaranteed to die.
My wife - no doctor - just full of common sense, had me practice deep breathing (which hurt), kept getting me up from my chair (which for 4 days I could barely move from), and kept me hydrated and eating. I was 65, in average health and fully recovered. No medication other than Ibuprofen for pain.
Folks, believe what you will. I determined from the beginning that I was not taking a vaccine that had an effect on my genes, and was cooked up in a year. I still won’t.
I highly recommend the book, “The Real Anthony Fauci” by Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. No, he’s not a FOX contributor but a lifelong Democrat that knows Fauci. Discover Fauci’s involvement in the aids epidemic, so-called. Better yet, if you don’t like long reads, check out this movie that was just released - it may still be free.
