Explore vaccine mechanisms and safety, COVID-19 immunity and transmission, and experimental applications through discussions with Rhonda Patrick and research summaries from FoundMyFitness.

“This episode has the answers to hot topic questions about the COVID-19 vaccines, such as: Is the spike protein made from the vaccines dangerous? Will the vaccines alter your genetics? Will they make SARS-CoV-2 deadlier?”

“The Pfizer and Moderna COVID-19 vaccines capitalize on this technology to induce antibody production against the SARS-CoV-2 virus. This Aliquot segment features Dr. Roger Seheult, a quadruple board-certified physician serving on the frontlines of COVID-19 care and co-founder of MedCram.”

“Dr. Seheult highlights how VAERS data can be misinterpreted as evidence that people are dying from the COVID-19 vaccine. As many people get vaccinated, the likelihood of some dying merely by chance increases. Moreover, most people being vaccinated early on were much older.”

“Even though pregnancy was an exclusion criterion for participation, some women became pregnant during COVID-19 vaccine trials. Researchers observed no difference in pregnancies or miscarriages between the vaccinated and control arms of the study.”

“Traditional vaccines carrying inactivated viral proteins are also in development. In this clip, Dr. Roger Seheult explains how the current COVID-19 vaccines differ and describes his personal immunization experience.”

“Vaccinologists developed mRNA vaccines to instruct a cell to make proteins that stimulate the immune system against SARS-CoV-2. Some people fear these vaccines are a type of gene therapy that can incorporate into human DNA and alter genes.”

“However, new variants may arise that evade the antibodies produced by vaccines. Yet, there is no evidence to suggest that vaccines can cause pathogens to become more virulent. In this clip, Dr. Rhonda Patrick discusses the relationship between vaccines and viral evolution.”

“Some people surmise that if the viral spike protein is dangerous — because it allows the virus to enter cells — then vaccine-related spike proteins render vaccines unsafe. COVID-19 vaccines contain different spike proteins than the SARS-CoV-2 virus.”

“Furthermore, mRNA is a labile molecule that does not enter the nucleus, and thus safety concerns are low. Other vaccines include the AstraZeneca vaccine, which delivers a small piece of DNA encoding the spike protein via an adenoviral vector.”
