Phillip Buckhaults, PhD on Heart Attacks, Autoimmunity and Cancer Linked to DNA Contamination of Pfizer mRNA COVID Shot

The Pfizer mRNA [COVID] vaccine is contaminated with the plasmid DNA vector that was used as the template for in vitro transcription reaction. This DNA could be the cause of some of the rare but serious side effects like death from cardiac arrest. There are a lot of cases now of people having suspicious death after vaccine. It’s hard to prove what caused it, it’s just temporally associated… and this DNA is a plausible mechanism.

This DNA can and likely will integrate into the genomes of cells that got transfected with the vaccine mix, and it becomes a permanent fixture of the cell. It’s not just a temporary thing, it is in that cell and all of its progeny from now on forever more. So that’s why I’m alarmed about this DNA being in the vaccine… it’s different from RNA because it can be permanent.

There is a very real hazard for genome modification of long-lived somatic cells like stem cells, and it could cause, theoretically, a sustained autoimmune attack toward that tissue. It’s also a very real theoretical risk of future cancer in some people, depending on where in the genome this foreign piece of DNA lands… it can interrupt a tumor suppressor or activate an alkA gene. The cancer risk is a possibility.
