In this Scouting Report from the road, Chris discusses concerns about the introduction of self-amplifying mRNA technology, particularly its use in Japan. He critiques the initial mRNA vaccines, suggesting they may have caused more harm than benefit, especially in younger populations. Chris highlights issues such as overproduction of mRNA, cationic lipid nanoparticles, and pseudouridine, which may have contributed to adverse effects. He argues that the ongoing development of new technologies to fix problems created by earlier ones is flawed.
Chris expresses fears that this cycle could lead to disastrous consequences, particularly in biospheres or through genetic technologies. He references emerging evidence linking plasmid DNA, specifically the SV40 promoter, to “turbo cancers” and warns about future risks with these genetic interventions.
