Hey man, I know something of that. I majored in biochemistry and now I am working somewhere near biotechnologies. mRNAs by themselves are good and very promising.
The way that I can see it, is that when mRNA vaccines prove the ultimate safety, they'll stop regulating it and it will lower the standards of production. So it may either lead to either the thalidomide incident or monopolization that's happening with GMO. Or maybe not, maybe we've learned our lessons. Nothing special to RNA, humans are shit
If you're holding out for more than a sample size of several billion before deciding if an mRNA vaccine is safe, you're not gonna get it, I don't know what to tell you. Tylenol is more dangerous than the vast majority of vaccines, and the testing and standards for vaccines are more rigorous than they are for any medication.
Again, it's a good story until something goes terribly wrong.
I also majored in biochemistry and have worked "somewhere near biotechnologies" since completing my degree, and am very disappointed with the FUD that you're spreading here.
Like what exactly?
