Are there fetal cells from aborted fetuses in vaccines?

No.

Some vaccines, particularly some of the older ones, were developed using cell lines derived from aborted fetuses. These cell lines are used to manufacture vaccines and to test their safety and efficacy. However, it is important to note that the vaccines themselves do not contain fetal cells.

One of the most commonly used cell lines is known as the “MRC-5” cell line, which was derived from lung tissue taken from a fetus that was aborted in 1966. Another commonly used cell line is the “WI-38” cell line, which was derived from lung tissue taken from a fetus that was aborted in 1962.

These cell lines have been used for several decades in the production of vaccines for diseases such as rubella, chickenpox, and hepatitis A. The use of these cell lines has helped to produce vaccines more efficiently and with greater safety and efficacy.

However, some people have ethical concerns about the use of these cell lines, as they were derived from aborted fetuses. It is important to note that there are no fetal cells in the vaccines themselves, and the use of these cell lines is carefully regulated by health authorities to ensure their safety and efficacy.

It is also important to note that some vaccines, such as the Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna COVID-19 vaccines, do not use fetal cell lines in their development or production.
