Original Note:
Gene therapy is a medical technology for intentionally modifying DNA. mRNA vaccines are not gene therapy. Some speculate that COVID-19 mRNA vaccines could inadvertently modify DNA through a process call retroposition, but there's no evidence of this. https://www.genomicseducation.hee.nhs.uk/blog/why-mrna-vaccines-arent-gene-therapies/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9141755/
