Extrapolating from worm to man is certainly still riskyTo find out for sure, the team removed this mark from the chromosomes of C. elegans worm sperm, which were then used to fertilize eggs with fully marked chromosomes. The researchers then examined the resulting offspring and observed abnormal gene expression patterns: in the absence of the repressive epigenetic mark, genes on the paternal chromosomes (inherited from sperm) were activated or "up-regulated". This means that the tissues have activated genes that they normally would not have expressed. For example, germline tissues activated genes normally expressed in neurons.

any extrapolation is risky and that was verified with the nickname vaxx goes everywhere which turned out to go nowhere!Extrapolating from worm to man is certainly still risky

You didn't say anything about the bogus Pfizer study on pregnant women that was only in vitro and tested on mice. You will tell me, at least mice are mammals...right?
