COVID-19 Vaccines Have Not Been Shown to Alter DNA, Cause Cancer

"Small amounts of DNA from the manufacturing process may remain in the mRNA COVID-19 vaccines. Purification and quality control steps ensure any leftover DNA is present within regulatory limits. There isn’t reason to think that this residual DNA would alter a person’s DNA or cause cancer, contrary to claims made online."

The Overton window is shifting as planned.

 

First, there is no evidence of DNA in the vaccines. Now, well actually there is DNA but there is no reason to think that it alters a person's DNA or causes cancer. The next step will be, "well, okay, it does alter the DNA, but in no harmful way". Then "well maybe it is a bit harmful, but less harmful than catching Covid". Then, "well, maybe it does cause cancer in some rare cases" etc.

Exactly right!

And do notice the phrasing of that Factcheck 'debunking' piece. Words like might, likely, suggest, etc. abound, and it's not just scientists that they quote but 'some' scientists, like the one still claiming that mRNA vaccines are injected into the muscles, where the bulk of the vaccine remains.

It certainly seems as though there's nothing new or alarming here... despite concerted efforts to mislead to the contrary:

 

From the above OP report:

 

DNA in Vaccines Is Not Inherently Dangerous

"Research into residual DNA in vaccines dates back decades. Anti-vaccine fear-mongering about residual DNA or other substances in vaccines is also not a new phenomenon.

 

Many currently available vaccines are made using cells. Some vaccines, such as the one against chickenpox, rely on weakened virus that is grown in cells. For other vaccines, such as for hepatitis A, viruses are grown in cell culture and then inactivated....

 

In all of these cases, the active ingredients for the vaccines are purified, but the vaccines can still contain small amounts of residual DNA from the cells used to make them. The FDA and other regulatory agencies have offered guidance on limiting the quantity and size of residual DNA left over from cells used to make vaccines."
