I am asking you to issue guidelines to pharmaceutical companies that when manufacturing vaccines, they restrict their use of stem cells to those established from sources other than fetal tissue obtained from aborted babies. It makes sense to use non-objectionable cell lines in all vaccine production so everyone can benefit from them without compromising their moral beliefs. This is especially true since there is an abundance of ethical sources! Thank you.
