Ever since the October 2021 World Health Summit, during which Stefan Oelrich made a speech in which he seems to say that the mRNA vaccines are gene therapy, a video of that speech has been making its way around the Internet.
So who is Stefan Oelrich?
Stefan Oelrich has been a member of the Board of Management of Bayer AG and head of the Pharmaceuticals Division, headquartered in Berlin, Germany, since November 2018. He is also responsible for the region of Europe and the Middle East.
Okay, so he's not a wack job or a low-level manager who could be accused of being reckless with his words. In fact, Stefan Oelrich is one of the top guys at Bayer.
Well, almost as if by prophecy the NHS in England published a blog post in June 2021, four months before Mr. Oelrich's speech, entitled "Why mRNA Vaccines Aren't Gene Therapies", which was posted by the Genomics Education Programme.
WireNews reached out to the NHS and asked for comment because the blog post and Mr. Oelrich's comments appear to be at odds.
The above is just 41 seconds of the longer speech, which can be found here.
Kathleen Lynch, who is Project Manager for the Genomics Education Programme Project with Health Education England at the NHS, replied as follows:
We have viewed the recording of Stefan Oelrich’s speech at the World Health Summit last year, and he appears to say “…the mRNA vaccines are an example for that cell or gene therapy”.
We can’t speak for what Mr Oelrich meant by that, but in terms of gene therapy, the definition we use (and that used by other reputable sources that come up when we search online for ‘Is the mRNA vaccine gene therapy?’) is a therapy that changes the recipient’s cellular DNA, which the mRNA vaccine does not. As such, our blog article does not contain misinformation.
An alternative definition of gene therapy might be the use of coding information from a gene to provide a therapy. In the case of the Covid-19 mRNA vaccine, this uses the portion of the virus mRNA that codes for the spike protein. But this vaccine does not then affect the recipient’s cellular DNA in any way.
WireNews readers will need to listen to Mr. Oelrich's comments, which appear quite straightforward and indicate that had people known the truth, the public would have overwhelmingly refused to take the vaccine. It, therefore, stands to reason that if what Ms. Lynch suggests is true, Mr. Oelrich's fears would have been unfounded.
You will need to listen and decide for yourself.
