Why the mRNA vaccine’s don’t stay in your arm
If, like many laypeople and even scientific and medically trained individuals, you’ve been led into believing that the vaccine stays localized at the site of the injection and elicits the necessary cellular responses there, then you’re in for a rude awakening. It’s the lymphatic system that is the main pathway of delivery and to reach that, the vaccine travels. Everywhere, it turns out.
Our Lymphatic system
To work effectively, the mRNA vaccines need to reach dendritic cells, and not just any old dendritic cells. The ideal ones, that respond best to the instruction carried in the mRNA to manufacture the spike protein, are located in our lymph nodes. Your lymphatic system, consisting of nodes positioned all over your body (see image above) offers a direct gateway to your immune system. To ensure the mRNA Pfizer vaccine reached all these nodes, the developers utilized lipid nanoparticles to deliver the vaccine to every outpost of the body.
More from Özlem Türeci, the Chief Medical Officer of BioNTech, in a passage from The Vaccine, the book that Türeci and her husband, BioNTech CEO Ugur Sahin, wrote, where journalist Joe Miller explains why BioNTech’s platform specifically targets the lymph nodes;
What Ugur learnt was that the location to which a vaccine delivers its ‘wanted poster’ really mattered. The reason for this, the couple’s team in Mainz later realised, was that not all dendritic cells … were created equal. The ones that resided in lymph nodes – of which the spleen is the largest – were particularly adept at capturing mRNA and making sure the instructions it carried were acted upon. These kidney-bean shaped organs, found under our armpits, in our groins, and at several other outposts in the body, are the information hubs of the immune system. (p. 98)
The wide biodistribution of the mRNA that came to light after the vaccine rollout was never an anomaly, as claimed by some and supported by the CDC. Far rather, it was a necessary design feature of BioNTech’s mRNA technology, a feature that was not publicized for obvious reasons. This distribution also serves to explain the wide ranging adverse events experienced by some to the vaccines.
This revelation makes a complete mockery of the articles published far and wide across the internet in 2020 and beyond, suggesting in fact that the vaccines were localized to the injection site. Even sites like the Conversation, with the help of medical professionals, got it spectacularly wrong. Take this article, titled Why do we get shots in the arm? It’s all about the muscle, published in May of 2021. We are assured the vaccine stays put and the description of the vaccines mechanism of action shows how poorly mRNA technology was, and is, understood.
Muscles make an excellent vaccine administration site because muscle tissue contains important immune cells. These immune cells recognize the antigen, a tiny piece of a virus or bacteria introduced by the vaccine that stimulates an immune response. In the case of the COVID-19 vaccine, it is not introducing an antigen but rather administering the blueprint for producing antigens. The immune cells in the muscle tissue pick up these antigens and present them to the lymph nodes. Injecting the vaccine into muscle tissue keeps the vaccine localized, allowing immune cells to sound the alarm to other immune cells and get to work.
