Bayer Head Admits mRNA Vaccines are Gene Therapy

Head of Bayer's pharma department Stefan Oelrich delivers a speech during the Opening Ceremony of the World Health Summit 2021.

Stefan Oelrich says mRNA vaccines are cell and/or gene therapy. (whether this can be read to be an admission they are specifically gene therapy is debatable as he uses the two terms as a compound category)

Oelrich is thrilled that people accepted it.

“If we had surveyed 2 years ago if people were willing to take gene or cell therapy and inject it into your body we would have probably had a 95% refusal rate.”
