We do have the tools to find out…

We have evidence now that contaminating foreign DNA integration events are possible with respect to the COVID-19 modified mRNA products in a cancer cell line. You can read more about that here and here. Phillip Buckhaults is about to embark on a new project to test cancer cells from real people for such integration events. You can read about that here.

My daily posts summarizing science articles have not been as frequent because I am in a pensive phase after four years of going all-out. I need to stop and think more about what they actually did all this for, from a science point of view. Most of me thinks that this entire COVID thing was a ruse to provide a segue for the gene therapy era for which the modified mRNA LNP platform will be essential. You can listen to me talk about that here.

I want this article to be a review on the CRISPR/Cas system and its lab-made counterpart (the ‘gRNA-Cas-9 system’)1 , since I believe that this is going to be an essential component in the next stages of ‘personalized health care’, which I believe will be fully integrated into a ‘centralized health care system’ where data will be extracted and made available without restrictions between agencies, and where everyone’s genome will be known and perhaps even accessible and modifiable.
