In mid-March 2023, the media extended that the head of the radiation, chemical and biological defense (RHBZ) of the Russian Federation, Lieutenant General Igor Kirillov accused the United States that MRNC-vaccines developed there are biological weapons. We decided to check if the military leader stated this.

March 10 c the largest Russian -speaking Media appeared statements Lieutenant General Kirillov at a briefing dedicated as it was Stated, "Analysis of documents regarding the military-biological activity of the United States." The military leader said that Pfizer pharmaceutical companies recognize the fact of “directed evolution” studies, and the vaccines developed by them “can cause the development of concomitant diseases and serious complications: meningitis, anaphylactic shock, acute myocardial infarction, stroke.” Also, referring to the position of the former Pfizer employee, Karen Kingston, Kirillov said that the MRNC-vaccines "by definition are biological weapons, since American legislation defines biological weapons as" any biological agent, toxin or delivery device. "

Checking the fact that Igor Kirillov made the above statements is quite simple. The TASS website is posted Video recording Parts of the briefing of the Ministry of Defense, including the performance of the general. However, his statements in themselves are doubtful of correctness. In order to deal with them in more detail, first of all you need to understand what MRNC-vaccines are and how they work.

Matric ribonucleic acid (MRNA) is a single -chain acid that carries information for the body about the structure of proteins. It is also called information RNA (IRNK). To understand the functions of MRNA and its connection with DNA, an analogy with the production shop is usually used. In this case, DNA - these are all the originals of all drawings for the manufacture of the necessary parts stored by the manager of production, and MRNA is a copy removed from them, issued by ordinary employees in production. Having the desired MRNA, the body can produce the necessary proteins. In MRNC-vaccines against coronavirus Contained An artificially created copy of the protein of the membrane of the virus (spike protein). With her help The body itself begins to produce non-infectious spike protein, reacting to which the body produces antibodies and memory cells to protect against SARS-COV-2.

In addition to MRNA exists A few more types of vaccines:

• Living (against the plague, anthrax, tularemia, brucellosis, flu, rabies, mumps, smallpox, yellow fever, measles, polio, tuberculosis): contain weakened pathogens;
• killed, or inactivated (against polio, influenza, typhoid, cholera, plague, whooping cough, hemophilic infection): contain killed pathogens;
• Anxins (against diphtheria and tetanus): contain weakened toxins produced by the pathogen;
• Subanary (against hepatitis B and the human papillomavirus, as well as a shameful pertussis vaccine): contain some proteins or mias of pathogens;
• Vector ("satellite V", Astra Zeneca): contain a safe virus-transport and individual elements of the corresponding pathogen.

In all these types of vaccines there is really a certain “biological agent, toxin or delivery device”, which Kirillov spoke about. MRNC-vaccines are the only type where it is not. That is, according to the classification of the Russian military leader, it is the “satellite V” should relate to biological weapons, and by no means Comirnaty (the trading name of the Pfizer / Biontech MRNC-vaccine). It is interesting that Kirillov, according to his own words, took an active part in the development of the Russian vaccine. Also in the magazine "Biological products. Prevention, diagnosis, treatment ”in 2022 was published article The commander of the RHBZ troops entitled "Study of the immunogenicity of the Gam-Kikid-Wak vaccine (another name" Satellite V ".-approx. Ed.)".

At the same time, the formulation used by Kirillov, which determines biological weapons, could not be found in the US legislation. IN Convention UN about biological weapons, ratified Including the United States, there is no direct definition, there is only an obligation “never, under any circumstances to develop, do, do not accumulate, do not acquire in any other way and not preserve microbiological or other biological agents or toxins, whatever their origin or method of production, such species that are not intended for preventive, protective or other peaceful goals”. At the same time outside the text of this UN document Gives The following definition: "Biological weapons are the spread of pathogenic organisms or toxins in order to harm or kill people, animals or plants." In turn, WHO Determines This type of weapon: “Biological and toxic weapons are either microorganisms such as viruses, bacteria or fungi, or toxic substances produced by living organisms that are produced and released intentionally to cause diseases and death of people, animals or plants.” In both formulations and in Kirillov, biological agents, toxins, and even delivery devices are listed, however, the lieutenant general misses an important part of the definition, namely, the intention of distribution and potential deadly.

Separately, Kirillov focuses on the seriousness of the complications that occur after vaccination with Comirnaty. In particular, he mentions meningitis, anaphylactic shock, acute myocardial infarction and stroke. IN Media really Meet reports that after Vaccination in people developed such pathologies. However, firstly, “after” does not mean “as a result”, and secondly, these are messages in the media, and not in authoritative scientific sources. We will deal with each pathology in detail.

Meningitis is inflammation membranes of the brain and spinal cord. Due to its occurrence, it is divided into bacterial, viral, fungal, protozoal and in some cases excited by non -infectious conditions. IN base scientific biomedical publications Pubmed Can detect some Descriptions cases aseptic (that is, non -infectious) meningitis after Comirnaty vaccination. At the same time, researchers are neat in their formulations and, noting the rarity of such manifestations, writethat the connection between vaccination and the disease cannot be unequivocally proved. IN list complications from vaccination, published by the Office for Sanitary Supervision of the quality of food and US medicines (FDA), is not indicated.

Anaphylactic shock - acute, threatening allergic life reaction an immediate type, which can cause drugs, immune serums, iodine -containing radiopaque substances, drugs for local and general anesthesia, poisons of animals and plants, many food products. Anaphylactic shock can cause, unfortunately, any vaccine. For example, the Union of Pediatricians of Russia Curses data on possible complications when using vaccines from the national calendar of preventive vaccinations: there is a slight probability of developing such a reaction after ADD/ADS-M, vaccination against hepatitis B, pneumococcal infection, measles, rubella, mumps, human papilloma virus. In the instructions for the "satellite V" vaccine also Contained The warning that very rarely a vaccine can cause anaphylactic shock. Including for the timely relief of this formidable complication after vaccination of the patient is usually asked to sit for 15–20 minutes under the supervision of a medical worker.

Acute myocardial infarction (OMI) is myocardial necrosis As a result of the sharp obstruction of the coronary artery. This is only one of the many cardiovascular pathologies. Moreover, they most often talk about the relationship between vaccination and other cardiological diseases - pericarditis And myocarditis (inflammatory damage to the serous membrane or heart muscle). Indeed, MRNC-vaccines can lead to such complications in instructions Comirnaty is indicated, but their frequency is minimal compared to the frequency of complications from the coronaviral infection itself. It is important to note that most of the statements about the critical growth of these pathologies are usually Introduce readers c Treatment. As for the OMA and the stroke, in December 2022 the assertion spread widely that it was these pathologies that often occur in people after vaccination. The factor from the Associated Press checked him and They came To the conclusion that it is incorrect. Monitoring more than 10 million Americans showedthat the frequency of the occurrence of OMA and stroke did not increase after vaccination.

It is noteworthy to whom Kirillov refers to his statement, speaking of the dangers of MRNC-vaccines. The first name - Geordon Trishton Walker - is already known to regular readers “verified”. In February, we published a large material, in which they dismantled the video with his participation, where the Walker, presented as a senior Pfizer employee, allegedly talks about the dangers of the vaccine developed in the company. The main thing is that we managed to find out:

• The video shot on a hidden camera published a conspiracy resource Project Veritas, already known for its anti -Vaccinator statements;
• The Waker’s words are commented on by another popular conspiracyman Robert Malone, who promoted the treatment of coronavirus vermectin - a veterinary antiparasitic drug, not having proven antiviral activity and not intended for use by people;
• Walker is not the director of research in Pfizer, but the urologist, that is, is not related to virology and vaccine development;
• Walker himself, after he found out that he was filmed, said that he had invented the whole story in order to impress the interlocutor, because he thought that he was not in an interview, but on a date.

Nevertheless, Kirillov did conclusionthat "an employee of Pfizer recognizes the fact of conducting" directed evolution ", which aims to obtain competitive advantages and increase profit." In ours material We analyzed about the Walker in detail what a directed evolution and research is aimed at strengthening functions. For many inhabitants, these concepts cause fear, but the matter is in a clash of household perception with scientific terminology. In fact, despite the frightening name, studies aimed at increasing the function of the virus, and directed evolution is not an attempt to kill the entire population of the Earth, but a way to study the virus, determine the optimal direction of vaccine development and actions to reduce its mortality. After the statements of Waker, Pfizer Published On its official website, a statement, which reports that it does not conduct studies aimed at strengthening the COVID-19 functions, as well as experiments on the directed evolution of the virus: “The original SARS-COV-2 virus was used for expression of a spike-box from new options that cause concern” (VOC). The pharmaceutical company emphasizes that "this study gave us the opportunity to quickly evaluate the ability of the existing vaccine to induce antibodies that neutralize the recently revealed option that causes concern." In addition, Pfizer conducts in vitro research to identify potential resistance mutations for nirmaterevir, one of the two components of the coronavirus medicine called “Paclovid” (approved by FDA in 2021). Most of this work is carried out using computer modeling or mutations of 3C-like (it is also chiripripsin-like, or, as they write in Russian-speaking publications, the main) proteases-the non-infectious part of the virus. So Kirillov’s assertion of directed evolution is based on the words of an inaccurate source and contradicts the statement of Pfizer. Moreover, a directed evolution is a way recognized by science to study the virus to develop means of combating it.

The second name mentioned by Kirillov - Karen Kingston, did not write about it before, so we will deal with the biography of this woman in more detail. In its profile on Linkedin, she Indicatesthat it worked in Pfizer from 1996 to 1998, but the first attempts to develop a vaccine using MRNA technology happened much later. Kingston gained fame in 2021 when she recorded video, in which she said that in the MRNC-vaccines from PFIZER / BIONTECH and Moderna, toxic graphene oxide is contained. All kinds of fakes about oxide Grafena FACECHERS Disassembled many once and even tracked, like this story It spread all over the world through social networks.

At the same time, Kingston is not the primary source of Fake about Oxide Grafen. In June 2021, a certain Ricardo Delgado, author Anti -Vaccinator Telegram channel, handed over to a group of researchers called "Fifth Column" from the University of Almeria (Spain) a bottle in which, as he claimed, was the Comirnaty vaccine. What was in that bottle is not known for reliably, as it is not known what these were the researchers. Then Delgado on his resources published the text of a certain report - it was in it for the first time that it was stated that Oxide Grafen was discovered in the vaccine. In turn, the University of Almeria declaredWhat his employees did not conduct any research, so it is still unclear who is the author of that report and whether he had at least some scientific qualifications. 

It is referring to Kingston that Kirillov says that vaccines are considered by American law as biological weapons. However, a single conspiracyologist cannot be a reliable source, and in the very definition, as we found out earlier, Lieutenant General made significant inaccuracies.

At the same time, MRNA technology is used not only by Pfizer. Even before the pandemic scientific community Seeking In this technology, a breakthrough in the treatment of cancer. In 2020, researchers from the Center Center (Novosibirsk) called MRNC-technology of one of the most promising platforms for creating vaccines against coronavirus. In 2021, the media Reportedthat MRNK-vaccines are developed at the scientific centers of the Novosibirsk Academgorodok and Science of Koltsovo. In September 2022, the Deputy General Director for Scientific and Production Work of the Vector GNC Elena Nechaeva told TASS, that such a vaccine is under development, in particular at that moment there was a “selection of technology and control methods”. So the technology as a whole finds its application in various scientific centers, including in Russia. 

Thus, a high -ranking official of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, who, according to him, took part in the development of vaccines, based on the words of conspiracy therapists makes statements that mislead people. The fear of the consequences of vaccination and a misunderstanding of the principles of vaccines leads to a decrease in population immunity and negatively affects the health of the population. Especially when unverified data on vaccines and bio -weary is read out by a person whose position implies responsibility for response to the real use of bio -weapons. At the same time, the accuracy of the fact that Kirillov said this is not in doubt, since no state information resources dispute this, and the briefing itself was recorded on the video.
