Researchers from the University of Queensland have refuted claims that coronavirus can enter a person's DNA.
The researchers from the UQ Queensland brain institute said the claims have led to “scaremongering” and people should not hesitate to be vaccinated.
Professor Geoff Faulkner said his team’s research published in Cell Reports showed there was no evidence of COVID-19 or the Pfizer or AstraZeneca vaccines entering DNA.
Faulkner said, “The evidence refutes this concept that is being used to fuel vaccine hesitancy”.
