Of course, in the future mRNA vaccines won’t be new technology at all, and so people rejecting them will probably be remember similarly to people who refused to wear seatbelts when they were new.
- tunap 4y agoMaybe! The fact that everyone "knows" that doesn't is the 1st concern. Even scientists are not clear on efficacy or long term beneficial/averse effects. Nobody knows why all previous mRNA vaccines were ineffective, yet, the Covid jabs are. Lots of questions still remain.
- jleyank 4y agoWhat previous mRNA vaccines? And it’s being used to deploy cancer treatments. If it can use the body’s mechanisms to make drug matter rather than dosing, think of the efficiency. Particularly outside the richest countries. We make all sorts of things medical and otherwise by adapting biochemistry. Nobody seemed to mind before.
- tunap 4y agoThe reason the majority of people didn't mind before is because testing & trials were stringently enforced. I, myself, have had numerous vaccines, required & optional. Previous post edit: Freudian slip, meant to convey unfavorable, but typed averse. >The concept of using mRNA to produce useful proteins to fight disease has been around for decades. But until now, no vaccines using this technology have made it this far in clinical trials. The success of the SARS-CoV-2 vaccines “is really good for the RNA field, because until very recently, there were just a handful of people who really believed in mRNA vaccines,” https://www.the-scientist.com/news-opinion/the-promise-of-mrna-vaccines-68202 https://www.the-scientist.com/news-opinion/the-promise-of-mr...
