[Music] we’ve heard that the kobe 19 vaccine uses mrna technology could you explain how do these types of vaccines work mrna is actually a coding sequence the easy analogy is it is a cooked book recipe so you put in the nasi lemak recipe you get nasi lemak laksa you get laksa when injected inside the coding sequence go into the cell you tell the cell to make exactly what the mrna says so inject the recipe inside the body processes it and makes out the carcinoma or in this case it’s actually the spike protein the spike protein comes out the body reacts to it voila you have your immunity that’s your vaccine i’m more curious about the nasi lemak going inside my body coming out okay so you don’t become a mutant after this this coding instruction doesn’t go into the nucleus that’s where our genetic materials are kept can’t go in you can’t change it so it’s very very safe and of course after the cocoa has been processed you destroy it no issues at all very safe erasing well i like nuts but anyways are side effects expected with the kobe 90 vaccines up to 60 to 70 percent of them may have some headache some muscle egg over at the side this is your body reacting to the vaccine that’s given is the body fighting against it so this fight does create some reactions but that’s okay you just remember this if you get side effects it means your body’s training well then good no pain no gain i like no pain no gain but anyway doctor what are the most serious ones the most severe thing would be some people having fever and difficulty getting out of the bed but that is very infrequent in fact if you do have symptoms like that just take a bit of painkillers from pancreas to more go and rest please don’t try to plan and schedule a tennis match or squash or golf you should lose one but if i experience severe side effects what should i do very simple go to your family physician especially the one you used to explain to them what your symptoms are that you’re the vaccine because the doctor will be able to assess you and give you a proper medication so doctor we’re hearing that younger people are experiencing more pronounced side effects why is that remember the side effects are a measure of the immune response so the younger people actually have a better immune system they mount a better response so the side effects is proportionate to your youth thank you it’s a pleasure it’s a pleasure for more information just come to this website you
