The covid vaccines are nothing like that. The covid vaccines are an experiment with R DNA, ...

Hey, serious suggestion: you should try to learn what this vaccine actually does. RNA is NOT DNA. I'm not trying to gaslight, but you honestly should learn the science if you want to have this discussion.
RNA is a single strand of nucleic acids that codes for specific proteins. That means RNA is a short lived bit of nucleic acids that tells a cell to make a protein.
In this case, the protein being "requested" is a bit of the spike protein that is found on the Covid virus. When that protein is detected by the body's immune system, the body reacts by making antibodies.
So in the case of mRNA vaccines, instead of directly putting that bit of protein in the syringe and injecting it into your body, they are putting this bit of RNA (single strand nucleic acids) that itself instructs the cell to make the protein. RNA is very fragile, so after giving the instructions for a few cycles, it is broken down into harmless (actually useful) nucleic acids that are the same as you'd get by eating a bite of steak. What you're left with is just some of the protein that your body sees as an invading Covid virus and your immune system responds.
That's very generally what happens with mRNA vaccines. They are safer than traditional vaccines because they get your own body to code for the proteins rather than injecting part of the virus or attenuated live virus into your body, and they leave nothing behind but protein and antibodies.
There is absolutely nothing involving DNA whatsoever. RNA and DNA are totally different kinds of molecules with completely different functions within a living creature.
Please do your own research if you care to corroborate what I've outlined. I believe it is important if you want to be taken at all seriously.
