I'll put it this way: Do you think it would be a good idea to release hundreds of cute baby Godzillas for children to play with and feed?
What could possibly go wrong?

I know, right. They could evolve into something else.

Like a child playing with matches in a hay barn. Some scientists have no common sense. Always eager to promote their creations out of reckless ego.

How could something like that be called a vaccine? It sounds to me like an engineered virus. If it reproduces like a virus, it is a virus.

If it quacks like a duck......

It is, but it isn't supposed to make you sick.
So are the viral vector vaccines. Why do you think they are called "Viral Vectors"?

See my thread "vaccines that are gene therapy".
