@ayjchan Has anyone attempted to demonstrate that spike proteins produced by mRNA vaccines won't cause long-term cell damage as hypothesized by research like https://www.mdpi.com/2076-393X/9/1/36/htm … and https://www.eurekalert.org/pub_releases/2021-04/eb-gcm041621.php … ?

I ask because I assume that the locus of concentration of the spike protein in the body would differ dramatically between a vaccine and COVID-19, so we wouldn't expect to see similar cells damaged, making it hard to guess what long-term symptoms to look for in study participants?

not answer/expert. may be related? There's anecdotal evidence of vaccination helping with long-covid effects, ie. same level of damage would be surprising to me as unadept - but you may be way deeper into it. One study of vacc. vs longC is just starting:https://twitter.com/VirusesImmunity/status/1387904036783931393 …
