Paper published in Circulation Research on March 31, 2021, shows how the spike protein damages cells (cytotoxic), confirming COVID-19 is a vascular disease [1, 2, 3] and not a respiratory disease.

The spike protein was thought only to play a role in attaching to the ACE-2 cell receptor, for the virus to gain entry into the cell (conferring infectivity), it is now clear from this study that spike protein is a fundamental part of the COVID-19 disease, it is pathogenic.

The new technology, gene-based COVID-19 vaccines, that have never before been used in humans and are all based on the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein genetic code (Wuhan code) as the target. While the paper focuses strictly on Covid-related issues, it unavoidably raises questions about the new vaccines based on spike proteins.  Salk Institute has since updated their page stating the vaccine spike proteins that the vaccines are based around, “behave very differently”, but how do they know?
