mRNA Vaccine Research and Concerns

Drew Weissman, who won the Nobel Prize for developing mRNA technology

that allowed Pfizer and Moderna to make this vaccine

that went into the arms of so many people around the world.

He writes to Tony Fauci in February of 2021,

this conversation, he said, Tony, I wanted to alert you

to some new data we generated with our nucleoside modified mRNA LNP.

That's a lipid nanoparticle.

I attached the current version of a supplement

request that has all the new data.

He says, I'm working with a maternal fetal researcher,

and we observed that higher than current vaccines and given IV,

the mRNA LNPs go to the placenta and the fetus,

measured by translation of the mRNA and cause an immune response in the amniotic fluid.

If you're a woman and you're pregnant,

an immune response to the baby that you're having will cause a miscarriage.

This is science 101.

You do not want an immune response to your own body.

Continuing, Drew Weissman says to Tony Fauci, in non-pregnant female mice,

the uterus and ovaries take up mRNA lipid nanoparticles and translate the mRNA.

We're repeating these studies with human dose levels of this LNPs

given intramuscularly and are waiting to release the findings until these studies are completed.

Tony writes right back, same day.

He says, Drew, thanks for sending this.

Looks like you have touched all the bases of informing people of your results.

It'd be interesting to see what human doses levels given intramuscularly do.

I hope that all is well.

Not, holy cow, we got to go back to the board.

We got to talk to the CDC.

Who are you talking to about this?

I need to see the studies right now. I'm flying there.

Stop everything. Not Tony Fauci.
