@earl-of-trumps saidThat would partially help explain why long haulers who take the vaccine seem to be experiencing some relief.

I've never heard of a respiratory virus causing gene alteration.
You have now. Sars-Cov-2 does, in people like me with Long Haul COVID.

Maybe the vaccine helps the body produce more antibodies to fight the remaining spike proteins that are interfering with genetic expression.
Or, of course, the study could be wrong and the long haulers' relief is reversion to the mean or a placebo effect,
I remain skeptical, but it's an intriguing possibility (from a scientific perspective).
@no1marauder saidmRNA does NOT have to affect your DNA to be classified as gene therapy, which it is.
What the CDC really says about the vaccines;
"They do not affect or interact with our DNA in any way.
mRNA never enters the nucleus of the cell, which is where our DNA (genetic material) is kept."
https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/vaccines/different-vaccines/mrna.html
mRNA can effect your DNA though. I have proven this before and here is the proof again.

And she's not alone. As the U.S. pushes to get people vaccinated, a curious benefit is emerging for those with this post-illness syndrome: Their symptoms are easing and, in some cases, fully resolving after they get vaccinated.
coolness, I will go for the vaccine for sure. I am pretty desperate here
@earl-of-trumps saidGood luck with that, my daughters got symptoms 4 months on from infection so I would be keen to know how that goes.

@metal-brain saidThe article shows you are completely wrong:

"Modified RNA is distinct from messenger RNA, which simply comprises instructions for building proteins; messenger RNA, the basis of two prominent COVID vaccines, does not affect DNA."

You might want to read past the headline next time.
@no1marauder saidIrrelevant!

They do not have to affect or interact with our DNA in any way to be gene therapy!
See the FDA definition!
