Florida Surgeon General Dr. Joseph Ladapo’s latest diatribe against COVID-19 vaccines took on a religious bent Thursday when he told far-right podcast host Steve Bannon that the inoculations are the “Antichrist of all products.”
A day after the Ron DeSantis appointee called for the end of mRNA vaccines because he believed they could harm DNA—a claim that experts have debunked—Ladapo reiterated his baseless contentions to Bannon.
“I think it probably does have some integration at some levels with the human genome,” Ladapo said on the War Room podcast, “because these vaccines are honestly—they’re the Antichrist of all products. So I think it probably does. But I’m not saying it does.”
“I think it probably…”
“It has been shown to contain DNA”
Umm, no, it contains RNA, which in turn helps produce DNA. Apparently he forgot his college biology classes.
High school biology*
He could always…I dunno…look it up. Not like there’s a shortage of COVID vaccine studies or middle-school-level explainers to grasp how mRNA works.
But based on his religious language, I doubt he’s interested in going against DeSantis or his pastor.

8% of human DNA is viruses…
