Robert F. Kennedy Jr, the main health officer in the United States, Recently admitted Some religious groups avoid measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) vaccine because it contains “Eliminated Fetus Lip“And” DNA Parkles “.
The US faced the worst screams of measles in the years almost 900 cases across the country and active explosion in many states.
At the same time, Kennedy, Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services, continued Erode to trust vaccines.
So what can we do with his newest claim?

There are no fetal MMR vaccine debris
Kennedy said “Abort fetus debris” in MMR vaccines is the major religious people refused to vaccinate. He specifies specific to Mennonites in Texas, a religious community, who has been Among the hardest hit by current measles paths.
Many vaccines work by using a small amount of an atenuated (weak) form of a virus, or in case of MMR vaccines causing viruses of measles, mumps and rubella. This resistant system provides a safe opportunity to know how to identify and respond to these viruses.
As a result, if a person is later exposed to genuine infection, their immune system can act quickly and effectively, to avoid serious illness.
Kennedy’s claim about fetal debris specifically refers to the rubella component of the MMR vaccine. The Rubella virus is generally grown in a human cell line known as WI-38that originally came from the lung tissue in an elective abortion in the 1960s. This cell line is used in decades, and no new fetal tissue has been used since.
Certain Vaccines for other diseasesAs with chicken, hepatitis A and rabies, also done by growing viruses in fetal cells.
These cells use not because of their origin, but because they provide a strong, safe and reliable environment for the growth of atenuated virus. They only serve as a medium growth for the virus and they are not part of the final product.
You can think of the cells’ cells to make the virus. When the virus is grown, it is removed and cleaned as part of a stiff process to meet the restricted standards of safety and quality. The rest of the last vaccine is the virus itself and reinforced agents, but not human cells, by fetus tissue.
So claims about the “fetal debris” of the vaccine are lies.
It is also worth noting the world’s main religions Authorized use of vaccines developed from cells originally obtained from fetal tissue if no alternative products are available.
Are there any fragments of DNA in MMR vaccine?
Kennedy admits the refusal of mennnows
The latter claim, about the vaccine with DNA particles, real technology. Tracking values of DNA fragments From the cell lines of the person used to make the Rubella component in MMR vaccine can remain even after cleaning.
However, in this claim, there is an implication that these fragments have health risk. It’s a lie.
Any DNA that can be in this vaccine are in a small amount, especially broken and humiliated, and biologically inert – that, It cannot cause harm.
Although, hypothetically, intact DNA is in the vaccine (which is not), it cannot have the capacity to cause harm. A common (but unstable) is concerned that foreign DNA can accompany its own DNA, and change their genome.
DNA identification of human cells in a way that causes involvement is very difficult. Although scientists intentionally try to do it, for example, In Gene TherapyThese require accurate tools, special viral delivery systems and controlled conditions.
It is also important to remember our bodies exposed to foreign DNA often, by eating, bacteria and even our own microbiome. Our immune system is constant digestion and thrown into this material without attaching to our genome.
This question is more studied for decades. Many health authorities, including Australia The administration of therapeutic coinInformed the wrong info about the perceived injury from the rest of the DNA in vaccines.
Finally, the idea that divided DNA in a vaccine can cause genetic injury.
The bottom line
Despite what Kennedy wants, no fetal wastes in the MMR vaccine, and the tracking of the DNA fragments that can remain at risk of health.
What evidence shows, are vaccines such as MMR vaccine that provides excellent protection against fatal and preventable diseases, and survivors Millions of Life around the world.
