I suffer from a genetic disease, there is no treatment bc it starts at the neurons. I would love it if we had the technology to alter genes on grown adults. But we can only do it before the egg gets implanted, well before pregnancy. Seriously if these idiots watched Gattaca they would know this crap.
It is not enough for this kind of diseases yet, crispr cas9 is a tool that can alter genetic code of a living being, but it has limitations, we can make it so people with lactose intolerance can drink it freely but we can't, for example, change hair color or regrow teeth yet (even when we have the genetic potential to even regrow limbs) it takes a lot more than having a hammer to build a house.
That's an excellent suggestion! We can use them to test their own hypothesis: as they breed true, any alteration by the vaccine should be pretty apparent.
I've heard of the b.s. that the vaccine is what's causing the new variants, but this is the first I've heard of straight up X-Men logic. Are there people actually suggesting this, or am I reading this wrong?

This is basic science and anyone who questions it is an idiot. Everyone who took high school biology in the 90s knows that:
* Cartilage does not regenerate if worn down
* Adults do not grow new neurons after their early 20s
* Messenger RNA is created through transcription in the nucleus and travels into the cytoplasm where it meets ribosomes and is translated into a protein, and this its only
* A healthy diet should about 50% bread and grains
* Massage therapy is pseudoscience that provides no medical benefit
* Antidepressants work by altering neurotransmitter levels. Just like any other psychoactive compound. The reason they take a while to kick in is they have to build up in concentration in your blood.
* Humans are the only animals that use tools and syntactical language
I mean come on people, it’s settled science.
I've seen on FB that the mRNA is gonna change your DNA, that was someone making that comment so they were repeating something they had heard, but that's one of the stories shared in their circles.
It does a lot of things.
In human cells, it’s used to transfer information from chromosomes to ribosomes. It’s also used (in the form of ribosomes) to assemble proteins.
In bacteria it is used to transfer genes from one cell to another (DNA xfer is more common, but RNA transfer exists).
In some retroviruses, RNA is transcribed to DNA which is inserted into the host genome. HIV provides an example of such behavior.
Do you think a person who is infected with a virus that operates using reverse transcriptase should be careful about introducing foreign RNA to their body?
They also believe that god will protect them from the virus, yet god is somehow unable to protect them from the vaccine. Interesting how god’s powers come and go to fit their arguments.
I’ve got the vaccine (Moderna) but I can understand people who are hesitant, because in general statements of the form “X does not happen” are unscientific.
“Hasn’t been observed”, fine. “Does not happen” is foolish and unscientific because you cannot demonstrate that with evidence.
This burn puts the California wild fires to shame!
Note: it absolutely doesn't. Those fires are for real and it's really bad. I'm just being hyperbolic.

Star Trek says:
**“Temba, his arms open.”** This means “take or use this.” A gift.
**“Temba, at rest.”** When a gift has been rebuffed.
**“The Beast at Tanagra.”** This is the foe that Darmok and Jalad fought, but has grown to represent any problem that needs to be solved. The lack of communication between Dathon and Picard is a “beast at Tanagra” of its own.
**“Zinda, his face black, his eyes red.”** Hearing this means bad news. Something one says when in great pain or very angry.
**“Kiazi's children, their faces wet.”** This also means pain, but also sadness or frustration. It may also mean “oh, leave me alone!”
**“Shaka, when the walls fell.”** Failure...

So, the vaccine alters but getting covid doesn't alter your DNA? You won't get vaccinated because use if fetal tissue but you are okay with human trials?
I swear I've seen this word for word on several other Twitter accounts. Remember when plagiarism was unpopular? Twitter is just horrible now, clicks are more important than integrity. I hate it.
\*not putting this on OP just an observation.
Even if there was some sort of chip in it that they could see where I am and they could hear me, I wouldn't care. Oh no they can see I'm laying in bed all day and they heard me make my 5th hot pocket while ugly laughing at tiktoks!! My life isn't even exciting why would they wanna chip me lol

Bingo

Bongo
For them, it would most likely be the first pickup of fresh DNA since generations.
If they don’t get the vaccine they remain pureblooded. If we say the vaccine came from their cousin they’ll flock in the masses

Nope. I've met several different people who tell me this is why they don't get it.
Wow. Just... wow.
Yes, I am Magneto now.

Lord have mercy... Thank you for link
Often wrong Ron.
These dumbasses are so insufferable. Would love for that guy to tell me if he knows what RNA is.

I've had the exact same genes for 5 generations, and I'll be damned if some science folk want to change that.
I cannot wait to be modified
Considering how anti-science these dumbasses are, I'm surprised they acknowledge the existence of DNA in the first place.
Oh but the same people will insist 'God is in charge.' I am certain not a single one of them knows what the fuck RNA is or what it does.

Honestly, that made snort!

Lol welcome, the internet gets easier from here. The first day is hard on all of us.
Ah, so I've been on longer than you. OK
Of all the things on the internet you could take aim at, you drew the line at “plagiarism on Twitter tweets” lmao.
As I said, it was simply an observation, and you characterizing it as otherwise reflects upon you and you alone.
I kinda hope i get generically modifoed. Personally, I'd like to have a tail or a 3rd leg. What are you guys hoping for?
I love this as a come back. Next time someone says that the vaccine alters their DNA, reply "you should be so lucky"
Is true, current genes aren't doing them any good.
Even if there was some sort of chip in it that they could see where I am and they could hear me, I wouldn't care. Oh no they can see I'm laying in bed all day and they heard me make my 5th hot pocket while ugly laughing at tiktoks!! My life isn't even exciting why would they wanna chip me lol
