I have to be completely frank: Since the media started covering the Covid-19 pandemic in early 2020, I have found it difficult to discern as to what to believe and what not to believe; I do not really know the efficacy level(s) of masks; I don't know whether I'd allow an unvaccinated person to get the J&J vaccine (because of the rare Nerve Syndrome it's been associated with in several patients), and I don't know whether these Covid-19 vaccines are actually "gene therapy" -- and if they are truly "gene therapy", is that a bad thing? There has been so much back-and-forth fighting dealing with the pluses and minuses of mask mandates in California that I really sometimes don't know which side to choose.

How do the vaccines work?
The United States has authorized three vaccines for emergency use, and a fourth is likely to go before the Food and Drug Administration for approval in the coming weeks.
Pfizer and Moderna: The first two COVID-19 vaccines to be greenlit in the United States use messenger RNA (mRNA), which is a molecule that instructs human cells to make a piece of the spike protein that the coronavirus uses to attach to and infect human cells. The material from the vaccine quickly disintegrates and never enters the cell’s nucleus, so it can’t alter the recipient’s DNA. The presence of the harmless spike proteins triggers the immune system to create antibodies and activate T-cells that mount an immune response. With the immune system primed, it is ready to act quickly if it ever detects the coronavirus in the body.
Researchers have been working on mRNA technology since the 1990s to fight a variety of diseases from influenza to Ebola, but the COVID-19 vaccine is the first time this technology has been authorized for the public.he Pfizer vaccinerequires two doses administered 21 days apart and the Moderna vaccine requires two doses 28 days apart.
