The claim is that the sample tested contained DNA in addition to RNA. DNA, particularly delivered by a plasmid, could indeed replicate in the nucleus. https://www.genome.gov/genetics-glossary/Plasmid#:~:text=A%20plasmid%20is%20a%20small,chromosomal%20DNA%20and%20replicate%20independently. Plasmid DNA is used in mRNA vaccine production, so it is possible that a vaccine lot could be contaminated with it. https://www.trilinkbiotech.com/blog/plasmids-part-2-perfecting-plasmid-production-for-ivt-mrna-manufacturing/

Original Tweet

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1637138697043820548

Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
