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?

As far as I know vaccines contain RNA, not DNA.
RNA is the stuff that your DNA “makes” to do stuff. You pass DNA down to your kids, but not RNA, because theoretically you have the same RNA (except you’re vaccinated so you actually don’t, which is why they need to get vaccinated too).
