People are dying from the gene therapy for sure, they are already dying in very large numbers. We know the numbers are cooked and it is happening.
However, the balance of probabilities guarantees that EVERYONE that has taken the gene therapy won't die. It is an entirely unreasonable claim.
The substantial concern is around long term damange to the test subjects which are unkown right now.
My concern is about the damange to the human gene pool because no one knows how this will affect what is passed on to their children. They tell us that mrna technology does not alter genes, but the universe is dirty and you can never guarantee this to be true. More to the point, we have no idea how this technology will interact with the dirty dirty process of epigenetics embedding information into our genome from the external environment.
There are a lot of questions, and while statistically it is plausible they will all die, I would be willing to bet money that this is just not going to be the case.
The numbers don't really ring any bells for me on that point. I should start a pool on this.
