If integration of RNA into the DNA integration is expected with viral infections, then shouldn't we expect that with vaccines as well? This isn't coming from a place of fear or rejecting the value of vaccines, I'm just curious.
- ImHereToVote 5y agoCells that are infected by viruses, thus reverse transcribing viral DNA, have the good sense to die. Do cells that get the mRNA from the vaccine die?

If this is true then you could inject mRNA vaccine and tumor cells would take up the mRNA and the antigen the cells would display would be useful to lead T-cells to destroying the tumor cells. The authors just discovered an antitumor activity of vaccines. Although probably not. And this study likely has no relevance to your biology.
