I’ve read recently about fears of immunizations affecting DNA. I understand that this is not the case and that the injection is “Genetic Material” to give instructions to your body to replicate certain things.
What I don’t understand is: Your genetics affect your future children; so by introducing genetic material aren’t you changing the DNA of future humans?
If in fact this is the case isn’t it possible that you won’t see side effects of these injected materials until the next generation is born?

Every structure and function within your body starts with folded proteins which do everything from forming tissue and organs to modulating chemical reactions within cells.
DNA are long strings of protein building/folding instructions. Cells make mirror copies of one side of the DNA string, called RNA. RNA passess through ribosimes, organelles within the cell, that use the bit-by-bit instructions to build and fold proteins which carry out cellular functions.
