Original Note:
mRNA COVID-19 vaccines are not "experimental gene therapy." The FDA defines gene therapy as a "technique that modifies a person's genes to treat or cure disease." mRNA vaccines do not modify genes. https://www.factcheck.org/2021/03/scicheck-texas-doctor-spreads-false-claims-about-covid-19-vaccines/ Lockdowns were effective public health interventions during the pandemic. https://bmcpublichealth.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s12889-021-11111-1
