There are no genetically modified organisms in the COVID-19 mRNA vaccines; no evidence these vaccines modify our DNA
Claim:
Unapproved genetically modified organisms in the COVID-19 mRNA vaccines could permanently change our DNA

Unsupported
Residual DNA in COVID-19 mRNA vaccines is documented, isn’t associated with genome modification or cancer, contrary to claim by Robert Malone
Claim:
The more COVID-19 vaccines doses people receive, the higher the risk of getting COVID-19; vaccines contain DNA fragments that modify the genome and cause cancer

Misleading
Claim that COVID-19 mRNA vaccines contain DNA contaminants based on study of vials of “unknown provenance”; no evidence COVID-19 mRNA vaccines can alter DNA in people
Claim:
DNA in COVID mRNA shots “may have the ability to alter the human genome”; “SV40 has been linked to cancer in humans”; “Regulatory Agencies Knew There Was a Contamination Problem”

mRNA vaccines against COVID-19 don’t modify humans, and don’t make them patentable or owned by any entities
Claim:
“if a human is injected with a GMO it becomes a patented piece of property from the government”, “they take away all your rights with mRNAs”

Study by Lund University researchers didn’t show that COVID-19 mRNA vaccines change our DNA
Claim:
COVID-19 vaccine mRNA is converted to DNA and enters the cell’s nucleus, so the vaccines can potentially change our DNA

Reverse transcription is a process by which RNA can be used as a template to produce DNA. It is mediated by an enzyme known as reverse transcriptase. In theory, while mRNA in vaccines can be converted into DNA by reverse transcription, there’s no scientific evidence demonstrating that this process occurs in people or that it leads to DNA integration in the genome.
