Fact check: Genetically engineering your salad with the COVID-19 vaccines? We're not there yet.

[AbrahamSolomon]

Our rating: Partly false​

Based on our research, we rate PARTLY FALSE the claim spinach and lettuce are being genetically engineered with COVID-19 mRNA vaccines. Researchers at UC Riverside are indeed studying whether edible plants like spinach and lettuce can be genetically engineered to produce genetic material contained in mRNA vaccines. But the study isn't geared specifically toward COVID-19 vaccines. And the effort is in its infancy, meaning a product in this vein is years away from becoming reality.

A misleading headline claims spinach and lettuce are being genetically engineered to contain COVID-19 mRNA vaccines.

I see this as forcing future vaccines on us in our foods.

A word to the wise:
When it comes to dystopian technologies being revealed in the press, both history and psychology (that of propaganda) has suggested for some time that the "product" is generally secretly further along than is being promoted.

The purpose, IOW, is to grease the skids.

BTW, Celeste Solum was the first I know personally to warn of this, well over a year ago.


PS> As to the Ever Trustworthy USA today, just note the 'weasel words' to help make the point. They're not "vaccines" and they were never just about the Booga-Booga Flu. Watch what you eat.
