In before the....
AMEN! The mRNA is NOT a vaccine! I though the J&J was going to be a regular vax like we used to get for polio etc., but it just gives you blood clots.... Not Good.
From the article: “But this move seems conspicuously political as if an agenda is in play that needs support.”
Actually, this whole article is nothing but a conspicuously political rank in support of the anti-vax agenda. Evidently, medical science isn’t supposed to evolve beyond the use of cow pox to eradicate small pox.
Words change meaning as technology evolves. Language also evolves with time. The following were all once very common English phrases:
Of the newe jet been thise weede, sooth?
And, for to drynken, strong wyn, reed as blood
Mine wanges werken me full wo
Blameth nat me if that ye chese amys
So moot I gon
The mRNA platform is simply the third generation of vaccines. The first were inactivated or attenuated pathogens. The second were conjugate or subunit vaccines. The third generation has been in development for decades. Yes, they are vaccines. They produce an immune response. They protect against disease. And soon, virtually all new vaccines will be mRNA based because they’re faster, cheaper, easier, and safer.
Sheesh..... is every cotton picking agency corrupt these dayz?
Is this the first attempt to use mRNA to vaccinate in a general population?
I would think that is the appropriate question.
The definition of a word should not precede its usage.
The word telephone has existed since the 17th century, but I think it was fair to call Alexander Graham Bell’s invention a telephone before every home had one.
I posted a thread about this back in January
I said
Last week the mRna stuff was not considered a vaccine
https://web.archive.org/web/20210118194713/https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/vaccine
this week it is. it must be great to have control of language, I would be really gay if I did.
Note to the mod who deleted my comment, gay used to mean happy before the definition was changed. that was my whole point in using that specific word.
the ChinaFlu is NOT the reason for the VAX, the VAX IS the reason for the ChinaFlu...
What was a 17th century “telephone”. I doubt the definition in a 17th century dictionary would describe Bell’s design. Bell’s use wouldn’t have appeared in a dictionary until years after his invention or even general use of it. That’s how language works.
The dictionary would have to know about prior usage. If it is extremely limited in use, it would likely comment on this.
I take it from your response, as you seem knowledgeable on the subject, that this is the first actual use of mRNA to attempt vaccination in the general population.
I would expect, therefore, such a definition to NOT be in the dictionary, or if electronic, as it is, it could be there with such a distinction.
That this is not the case, probably is telling about the motivations of those providing the definition.
The Merriam-Webster word list is no longer a legit Dictionary.
It is a disinformation tool.

Minitru could use a guy like DugwayDuke.
“Words change meaning as technology evolves. Language also evolves with time.”

Patronize much?
If it’s not from cow pustules, is it a vaccine?
1st blood clot death in Quebec. I am definitely waiting now to get the vaccine.
one guy in new jersey wrote: “Minitru could use a guy like DugwayDuke.”
Actually, the anti-vaxxer cultists would be far more at home there than I. It would be perfect for them since they would get to define the meanings of words to support their agenda .
“I take it from your response, as you seem knowledgeable on the subject, that this is the first actual use of mRNA to attempt vaccination in the general population.”
_____
This is the first actual use of mRNA to attempt gene manipulation therapy on humans.
Everyone getting these gene manipulation injections is participating in a multifaceted experiment.
The only reason the word “vaccine” has been grafted onto this technology is to allow its proponents to paint any and all detractors with the focus-group-approved term “anti-vaxxer”.
See 18.
Seek help, DD.
Is it anti vax to demand the treatment being administered to tens of millions be tested past the experimental stage?
The FDA denies use of experimental drugs for dying people that have more testing.
