Will we be able to get rid of Non-GMO labels yet?
Will we be able to eliminate the virus with crispr babies?
So it doesn’t change genetic makeup but it does attach to it.? Isn’t that changing it? I should be reading and not asking but I can’t make it too far past Trump tweets before I pick up a bottle anymore
The way I read it is that DNA is the "code" of your body and RNA is the conversion of code to actionable proteins. We aren't changing the code (DNA) but rather injecting instructions that aren't already in the code to produce proteins that would stimulate an immune response against COVID. This mRNA doesn't integrate into our genes though so like I said it isn't technically changing our genetic makeup.
I am not a biologist though so I may have completely missed the point here haha.
