Israel’s Covid-19 boosters are preventing infections, new studies suggest
I&#x27;m pretty surprised to still see some misinformation in some of the posts here.<p>I have a friend who has a PhD in molecular biology and she described the mRNA vaccines to me.<p>The mRNA is only a piece of the spike protein, and does not enter the cell&#x27;s nucleus.  It only interacts with the cytoplasm.  Normally, if a cell had to deal with an actual SARS-CoV-2 virus, it would be dealing with the spike proteins and the entire virus, basically, a much higher dose, and it would also invade the actual cell.<p>She also described the ingredients of an mRNA vaccine, which were basically:<p>-mRNA (which is gone from the body in a few days)<p>-lipids<p>-salt and sugars<p>It&#x27;s also worth noting that the mRNA does not interact with a person&#x27;s actual DNA.  I just don&#x27;t see why there is so much concern out there.  This is a potentially deadly virus.  Look at the states with the highest amount of unvaccinated individuals in the US.  They are running out of hospital beds [1].  This is not about taking our freedoms, this is about getting this under control.<p>I do agree with the other posters here that say that COVID will likely just become endemic.  My understanding is that eventually it will probably be a common cold, once humans have enough antibodies for it.<p>[1] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;fortune.com&#x2F;2021&#x2F;08&#x2F;25&#x2F;states-icu-beds-covid-cases-delta-variant&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;fortune.com&#x2F;2021&#x2F;08&#x2F;25&#x2F;states-icu-beds-covid-cases-d...</a>
