‘We Must Be Very Cautious With Genetic Medicines’: Dutch Molecular Biologist Warns

Published on December 30, 2023

Dutch molecular biologist Dr. Maarten Fornerod warned that the world should be “very cautious with genetic medicines” while pointing to a recent study showing that mRNA vaccines produced foreign proteins that posed unknown risks. In a Dec. 20 program on the German news platform Blckbx, Dr. Fornerod was asked about a Dec. 6 study published in Nature, which showed that the mRNA vaccines produced foreign proteins other than the spike protein aimed at immunization. “The consequences are that you get those unexpected proteins, those shuffled proteins, which actually have no known meaning for the cell,” Dr. Fornerod said. “But just as with a word, if you shuffle the letters of a word, you sometimes also get a word that means something. And then the question is how does the cell react to that? What kind of instruction does it give to the cell? So that I think is, yes, that’s a possible danger.”...
