Abstract
BNT162b2 vaccine against Covid-19 is composed of
an RNA having 4284 nucleotides, divided into 6
sections, which bring the information to create
a factory of S Spike proteins, the ones used
by Sars-CoV-2 (Covid-19) to infect the host. After
that, these proteins are directed outside the cell,
triggering the immune
reaction and antibody production.
The problem is the heavy alteration of the
mRNA: Uracil is replaced to fool the immune system
with Ψ (Pseudouridine); the letters of all
codon triplets are replaced by a C or a G,
to extremely increase the speed of protein
synthesis; replacement of some amino
acids with Proline; addition of a sequence
(3’-UTR) with unknown alteration.
These impairments could cause strong doubts about the
presence of codon usage errors. An
eventual mistranslation has consequences on
the pathophysiology of a variety of diseases.In
addition, mRNA injected is a pre-mRNA, which
can lead to the multiple mature mRNAs; these
are alternative splicing anomalies,
direct source of serious long-term harm on the human
health.
In essence, what will be created may not be
identical with protein S Spike: just an error in
translational decoding, codons misreading, production
of different amino acids, then proteins, to cause
serious long-term damage to human health, despite
the DNA is not modified, being instead in the cell
nucleus and not in the cytoplasm, where the modified mRNA
arrives.
However, in this case, the correlation between speed of
synthesis and protein expression with synthesis
errors, as well as the mechanism that could affect
the translation of the sequence remain obscure,
many trials have not yet been performed.
