I would like to correct and add to a letter from Bob Staples a few days ago, in which he claimed that COVID vaccines are made with aborted fetal cell lines. According to the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, “Vaccines for varicella (chickenpox), rubella, hepatitis A, rabies, and COVID-19 (one U.S.-approved version, Johnson & Johnson) are all made by growing the viruses in fetal count cells.”
The other two COVID vaccines (Pfizer and Moderna) are not made from fetal cells. The fetal cells used to grow vaccine viruses were first obtained from elective termination of two pregnancies in the early 1960s. These same fetal cells obtained from the early 1960s have continued to grow in the laboratory and are used to make vaccines today. No further sources of fetal cells are used for these vaccines.
About 30 common medications that also used fetal cell lines during research and development include acetaminophen, albuterol, aspirin, ibuprofen, Tylenol, Pepto Bismol, Tums, Lipitor, Senokot, Motrin, Maalox, Ex-Lax, Benadryl, Sudafed, Preparation H, Claritin, Prilosec, and Zoloft.
So if your argument for not getting a COVID-19 vaccine is that there are fetal cells in it, please be sure not to use any of the other meds either.
Oh, and don’t forget to get one of the two COVID-19 vaccines not made with fetal cells.
