One of the reasons why so many people (the vast, vast majority of whom tend to be American conservative, either literally or in values) are absolutely opposed to taking (any of) the Covid-19 vaccines is that they think that an mRNA vaccine changes one's DNA.
They talk about how it changes people into mutants, how it changes DNA, yada yada. They'll rather take the risk of getting infected by the coronavirus (which according to them has like a 99.9% survival rate) than get the vaccine.
Do you know what I find most hilarious about this particular argument?
The fact that they are worried that the mRNA vaccine is going to change their DNA, while not being worried that the coronavirus itself is going to do the same thing, even though it replicates in the same way.
Indeed, if the mRNA vaccine were to change their DNA, then so would the coronavirus as well, because the replication mechanism is the same.
I don't think any of them have ever even thought of that.
Of course in actual reality neither the mRNA vaccine nor the coronavirus changes your DNA. The method of replication inside the cell does not involve changing the DNA of the nucleus. It doesn't get even close to the cell nucleus.
