Regarding MRC-5 and WI-38,

You can find both MRC-5 and WI-38 listed on the ingredients of the vaccines.
These cells are essentially stolen goods, harvested after a murder.

Yes HeLa cells were also taken unethically, but not after a murder. And there has been for more publicity decrying that process than there has been for the murders that led to these cell lines.
It is my impression from the guidance that we are released from the obligation to avoid these unethical vaccines if it is a grave inconvenience. But that does not mean we are obligated to take the unethical vaccine. And as this article pointed out, "There’s a strong tradition in Catholicism that people must not be required to do something they consider to be sinful in order to participate in an organization."
I think the article does a good job explaining that people can in good conscience come to different conclusions on this matter. I don't intend to convince others that it's wrong to take the vaccine. I just hope not to be bullied into taking it or be told that I'm doing wrong by not taking it.
