“To date I have seen no evidence that any manufacturer of these magic potions consistently produces what they claim they produce,” writes Sasha Latypova, a former pharmaceutical R&D executive with over 25 years of experience, who says panic around “self-replicating mRNA” is not the real concern.

“The manufacturers demonstrably are unable to manufacture a single mRNA sequence to specification (e.g. coding for Wuhan “variant”), so how are they going to make a self-replicating Wuhan variant?” says Latypova.
