While it is true that cell lines derived from a fetus aborted in 1970 plays a role in the vaccine development process, the molecules for the vaccine are separated from the resulting cell debris. [ 72 ] [ 73 ] Several other COVID-19 vaccine candidates use fetal cell lines descended from fetuses aborted between 1972 and 1985.
In a sharply worded dissent Thursday, Justice Clarence Thomas expressed support for the plaintiffs’ debunked claims that all Covid vaccines are made with cells from “aborted children.”
The vaccines do not contain any of the original fetal tissue or cells or cells derived from fetal materials. [5] Although the vaccine materials are purified from cell debris, traces of human DNA fragments remain. [6] [7] [8] The cell lines continue to replicate on their own and no further sources of fetal cells are needed. [5]
David Matthews, a co-author for this study, clarified that MRC-5 was solely used for testing purposes to determine "how the Oxford vaccine behaves when it is inside a genetically normal human cell." [6] The manufacturing of the vaccine used the HEK 293 fetal cell line, the kidney cells of an aborted or spontaneously miscarried female fetus ...
VATICAN CITY (Reuters) -The Vatican told Roman Catholics on Monday that it was morally acceptable to use COVID-19 vaccines even if their production employed cell lines drawn from tissues of ...
The evaluation of adjuvant components for use in a RBD based vaccine was partially enabled by NIH funding [27] along with prior funding to support development of the CpG adjvuant for use in vaccines. [28] The BioE company planned to priced the shot at ₹250 (around $3) per dose. [29]
A surprising unsolicited adverse reaction was a low lymphocyte count in those receiving the vaccine. This occurred in the majority of vaccinated individuals regardless of the dose, whereas only 10% of the placebo group encountered such adverse reaction. The authors pointed out that the lymphocyte count recovered to normal after 4 days. [16]
AD5-nCOV, trade-named Convidecia, is a single-dose [2] viral vector vaccine for COVID-19 that is also used as an inhaled booster. It was developed by CanSino Biologics , with Phase III trials conducted in Argentina , [ 3 ] Chile , [ 4 ] Mexico , [ 5 ] Pakistan , [ 6 ] Russia , [ 7 ] and Saudi Arabia [ 8 ] with 40,000 participants.
