.. mRNA “is a clear case study in how the American system of innovation .. can solve massive challenges. Yet the political climate is now so infected .. that the very technologies that saved lives are being defunded and defamed.”

A terrible decision with perhaps more terrible decisions to come
Maybe we need an mRNA vaccine for MAGAs?
It is not the goal of the Trump administration to save lives. That is very woke. The goal is to cull the society of those the Don feels are unworthy. Let the sick die, get rid of POC. Figure it out guys.
Mercia 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Putting morality, economics, "whatever" aside, acts such as this are an abrogation of a primary duty of any government: to protect its citizens.
Pandemics are inevitable.
Further, if knuckleheads choose to believe in 'lab leak theories' & then close down science, they're mad, bad, or both.
Core mRNA technology used by Moderna was developed by Katalin Karikó (Hungarian) & Drew Weissman, working together at Penn starting in the late 1990s They won a Nobel Prize. Kizzmekia Corbett, a Black woman, played a pivotal role in developing the Moderna vaccine. Stéphane Bancel (French) is CEO. 🧐
mRNA might be good for something, but not for vaccination.
mRNA vaccines are one of the greatest innovations in modern times. If I was any other country, I'd be throwing money at mRNA scientists to develop science-based technologies that cure lots of diseases--including cancer--that mRNA vaccines can solve.
If the US won't do it, someone should.
the cult lives in bizarro-world
RFK Jr vs DARPA …
The political climate is now so infected by oligarch sociopaths that the taking of lives is promoted and funded.
As mass death concentrates their capital.
A terrible decision with perhaps more terrible decisions to come
It’s been written that mRNA technology saved 10-20 Million lives the first year of the COVID vaccine. It’s absolutely disgusting that RFK Jr. is allowed to do this.
EU, Canada, China, Australia, maybe India, will be the beneficiaries of the US punching itself in the face, then watching its brains run off to those countries. Why are we so fucking stupid and hateful?
RFK Jr believes in survival of the fittest. If we allow the weak and sick to die instead of treating or curing them and only the strong procreate, then he believes we create a disease resistant population of super humans. HE IS A SICKO
We need to stop calling these moves "political." No reasonable policy argument would lead to this decision. It's clearly the result of serious psychiatric cases being sent to institutions of government instead of the other kind.
The US no longer likes innovations especially in healthcare. MAGA and RFK Jr is taking us back to bloodletting and leeches.
This administraion knows everything about everything therefore anything they don't understand is "woke" and "a waste of money".
They want to scrap the vaccines we already have develop new ones, they all make billions
Its not the “political climate,” its the republican party.
Convicted Felon Trump could be doing victory laps for funding the safe & effective COVID vaccines but no, he and clown fuck RFKjr want to let people die.
The man is mentally ill. WTF?
American exceptionalism about to be replaced by Chinese exceptionalism
The American Medical Association expresses "deep concern" over a report that Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy plans to remove members of the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force.
MAGA is an Anti- American Death Cult seeking to destroy the country. Domestic Terrorists inside the government . How much proof do you need?
Death to America! #FDT #FRFK
RFK is a retard and imbecile EOF
People will die! The fault will be RFKjr's!
The thing about RFK is that 🍊 is in the #trumpepsteinfiles
They are actively trying to kill people imo.
They don’t care how many people they kill.
Can not stand the mealy-mouthed, work-arounds like the “political climate is so infected.” One party is run by conspiracy-addled lunatics. If the other party had won, no research would be canceled. So it’s not the “political climate” is it?
📌
"Political climate", by that you mean; America is now a kleptocracy being run by a fascist death cult
😡😡😡😡😡
Child and elderly are usually the first group to die. It is unconscionable to see suffering and death that was preventable. I have gone through cancer treatments and radiation therapy to my chest. As bad as that was the suffering and death from measles is horrible. So senseless.
mRNA was getting close to solving some cancers..this is insanity
Rfkjr Rot in Hell Take our freedoms of good health Rot in Hell, May your dead soul turn into dust and blow away for eternity
The CDC and NIH under a liberal extortionist managed to kill 100s of thousands based on big pharma science
Real life Idiocracy... and Trump is a pedophile.
That’s Because cause the people we got making decisions are no smarter than that game We used to play called a barrel full of fucking monkeys.
I really don’t think it’s the political climate. I think it’s one small deranged aspect.
