"XXXX and I are not on board with the experimental vaccines which make changes to your DNA. My sister XXXXX who worked in the pharmaceutical industry for a long time ( she just retired last year) advises against getting the vaccine. She said she will not go near it. So we are holding out and just bolstering our immune systems with vitamins and supplements. There are good therapeutics and overall 98.5% survival rate which is better than for flu. (Also, Bill Gates has the patent on the Covid virus, the vaccine, and the testing kit- that makes this all very fishy!)"

Oh well.... I don't get it, but looks as if there IS quite a large % of Americans who feel that way and will be holdouts... for whatever reason. IMO why take the GIVEN risk of contracting Covid - esp at our age.

Please let your ex know that mRNA vaccines do not interact with DNA and can not make changes to DNA. She is misinformed about DNA. This is an excerpt from the CDC website.......

mRNA from the vaccine never enters the nucleus of the cell and does not affect or interact with a person’s DNA.

The excerpt is from this page.....
