Florida Surgeon General Joseph Ladapo, who previously cautioned against the COVID-19 vaccines, wrote a letter to the FDA questioning the inoculations.
“On today’s episode of: What the FDA… I asked [FDA Commissioner Robert Califf] to address the DNA fragments detected in mRNA COVID shots & how they are hitchhiking into human cells. DNA integration into the human genome & oncogenesis are known risks, even acknowledged by @US_FDA in ’07,” Ladapo tweeted.

“I am writing to you to address the recent discovery of host cell DNA fragments within the Pfizer and Moderna COVID-19 mRNA vaccines,” Ladapo said in the letter.
“This raises concerns regarding the presence of nucleic acid contaminants in the approved Pfizer and Moderna COVID-19 mRNA vaccines, particularly in the presence of lipid nanoparticle complexes, and Simian Virus 40 (SV40) promoter/enhancer DNA. Lipid nanoparticles are an efficient vehicle for delivery of the mRNA in the COVID-19 vaccines into human cells, and may therefore be an equally efficient vehicle for delivering contaminant DNA into human cells. The presence of SV40 promoter/enhancer DNA may also pose a unique and heightened risk of DNA integration into host cells,” he explained.
Ladapo posed a series of questions to the FDA, including, “Have drug manufacturers evaluated the risk of human genome integration or mutagenesis of residual DNA contaminants from the mRNA COVID-19 vaccines alongside the additional risk of DNA integration from the lipid nanoparticle delivery system and SV40 promoter/enhancer?”
“Has FDA inquired any information from the drug manufacturers to investigate such risk,” he asked.
“Considering the potentially wide biodistribution of mRNA COVID-19 vaccines and DNA contaminants beyond the local injection site, have you evaluated the risk of DNA integration in reproductive cells with respect to the lipid nanoparticle delivery system?”
During a September press conference, Ladapo cautioned against receiving the COVID-19 vaccines, saying, “There’s a new mRNA COVID vaccine and there’s essentially no evidence for it. There’s been no clinical trial done in human beings showing that it benefits people. There’s been no clinical trial showing that it is a safe product for people.”
“Not only that, but there are a lot of red flags,” he added. “There are multiple studies now from around the world–Brazil, Australia, the United States–that show that over time, these mRNA COVID-19 products actually increase your chances of contracting COVID-19.”
