Did Moderna Name Their New COVID Vaccine Death Spike?
Why do some people think that Moderna named their new COVID vaccine death spike?
The usual suspects…
Did Moderna Name Their New COVID Vaccine Death Spike?
So what’s the truth here?
Well, while ‘nex’ is a Latin noun meaning death, it obviously isn’t being used as a noun in the name for their new COVID vaccine.
Instead, we have the root ‘nex-,’ which means binding or connecting, with SPIKE.
Why?
Because the antibodies that the COVID mNEXSPIKE vaccine will have you make will bind to the COVID virus spike proteins if you get exposed to someone that is sick.
If you still don’t get it, think of the word annex, which means to connect to something, not the death of something…
The Next COVID Death Spike
That’s not to say that we shouldn’t be on the watch for a COVID death spike.
If we don’t get an updated COVID vaccine and variants keep surging, a COVID death spike is exactly what we will see, especially if folks keep listening to these kinds of anti-vaccine influencers.
