Re Genetically Modified Human, so far, the evidence that mRNA can make changes to DNA is weak. I’m not saying it’s not there, but it’s still pretty weak.

The weakness of evidence is due to our weirdly persistent trust in authoritative pronouncements instead of doing our own fact-checking.
From a clinical study published in Feb. 2022 and available free online:
"...a recent study showed that SARS-CoV-2 RNA can be reverse-transcribed and integrated into the genome of human cells.... [citing a paper published in PNAS May 2021]
Our results indicate a fast up-take of [Pfizer] BNT162b2 into human liver cell line Huh7, leading to changes in LINE-1 expression and distribution.
We also show that BNT162b2 mRNA is reverse transcribed intracellularly into DNA in as fast as 6 hours upon BNT162b2 exposure."
Cited by a grand total of 25 sources worldwide. So clearly there was nothing noteworthy here...
However, the May 2021 study mentioned IN the above study was funded by the NIH. And from that paper, we get hair-raising statements like this:
"We also found, in some patient-derived tissues, evidence suggesting that a large fraction of the viral sequences is transcribed from integrated DNA copies of viral sequences, generating viral–host chimeric transcripts."
Chimeric transcripts were confirmed - around 8 years ago - as prime suspects in triggering organ-specific cancers, esp. in the liver.
I couldn't find out whether they are thought to be permanent genetic changes which get passed to the next generation - but chimeric transcripts are part of the CRISPR technology, and CRISPR changes to DNA are admitted to be irreversible.
But I digress.
My point: It's been known for some time that mRNA can and does trigger retrotranscription to DNA, which in turn is linked to genotoxicity and cancer. And it was known that the Pfizer formula was likely to do all of the above. Yet the CDC, the WHO, the UN, et al. continue to call such claims "myths".
