Previous conventional vaccines ( on the same model as AstraZeneca and Johnson's ) against human coronaviruses had the charming habit of killing the test animals.
Including by catastrophic reaction if the animal was re-exposed to the virus several months after vaccination.
Now both widely-used conventional vaccines show very specific blood clot reaction a few days after vaccination.
This has the potential to be a catastrophe 100 times worse than the virus.
We will see for the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines ; they use a different mechanism and aside from rare allergic reaction right after injection, didn't raise flags and are more effective too.
When you strip it right down, it's about a manufactured crisis caused a civilization to react by trying to "fix" it, only the fix made things worse, and then they tried to fix that ... and that's why there's only birds now.
yeah, I'm going to need to see extensive testing to prove that an mRNA gene therapy drug is safe and effective. My guess is that it is wide-scale R&D work to up their game in mRNA therapies and this was a convienient excuse to test on the general public. Irrational fear is a wonderful thing.
The J&J (and AstraZeneca, I believe) are not traditional vaccines.
AFAIK, "traditional" vaccines involve injecting dead or neutralized versions of the virus that are enough like the original virus to cause your immune system to recognize the protein signature of the original virus.
The J&J vaccine uses the shell of a coronavirus, which attaches easily to your existing cells, but the payload has been modified so that instead of your cells producing copies of the virus, they produce protein spikes similar to SARS-CoV-2, and your immune system responds to that.
It's similar to the mRNA vaccines in that it causes your own cells to produce the proteins that stimulate your immune system, but the delivery mechanisms to the cells differ.
The J&J method has more human testing behind it, though, as it is the same as used by J&J's Ebola vaccine, which has been undergoing human trials for a few years. AFAIK, the mRNA-based vaccines have never been tested in humans before 2020.
I'm not making a judgement on which is safer here. All the COVID vaccines are relatively new technology, so I'm pretty apprehensive about getting one.
