our greedy healthcare community is to blame....nothing else

This is a BIGLY ignorant statement.

This is why the US is falling behind other countries, why it will take decades to recover from trump, and why we are becoming a laughing stock.

You read an article about unnecessary procedures. Good for you. Based on that you now understand less than 0.0001% of how science and healthcare works. Congratulations.

funding for all medical research is driven by $$$ so whats not to trust

Not true.

Many medical and scientific discoveries are in search of helping people and advancing society. Conservatives and libertarians don't understand the concept. That's why it is asinine to run government like a business. Government isn't about traditional profit and loss.

There's a reason I said "specifically". That all sounds like an open-ended money pit for at least some things that aren't even an issue, given that multiple mRNA vaccines were developed, manufactured, distributed and successfully delivered into humans.

Half a billion dollars seems a "tad" excessive.

How much is excessive to try to retrofit a jet accepted as a bribe?

I have increasing difficulty trying to discern if RFKJ's decisions are based on legitimately loony views or if instead he's trying to create a basis for future lawsuits and thereby continuing his life-long grift. I imagine it's a little of both.

And yet we recently had a poster here arguing that RFK, Jr. was actually doing some good things overall and that liberals ought to support him more often. Um, no. Whatever "good" he's potentially doing is going to be vastly outweighed by the damage he's causing. There's a very good chance that thousands may unnecessarily die because of his direct actions before he's finished.

Certainly makes sense. But I don't think the current mRNA vaccines for covid are getting banned by the FDA. But they are much more expensive than the alternatives and harder to distribute so I'm guessing that they will get mostly supplanted.

I did read that there were some good results from a study for mRNA for flu vaccines. They were still much more expensive than the current options but they get a better immune reaction and they are able to produce the vaccines much quicker. This means that you can start producing closer to flu season and get a better idea of what flu strains are going to be the correct ones to target.

Funding for research in mRNA led to the creation of the SARS Cov 1 vaccine, which then later hugely fast-tracked the creation of the Covid-19 vaccine (SARS Cov 2), which saved many millions of lives throughout the world. Cutting this funding is almost certainly killing people in future pandemics, and in many other ways.

“This will impoverish American resilience to future pandemics. But more importantly, it will be used by some to legitimise unfounded claims that mRNA vaccines and vaccines in general are unsafe. This is directly opposite to the scientific evidence-based approach to science. This technology offers real benefits not only against infectious diseases, but also in our fight against cancer, autoimmunity, and hereditary diseases."
...
“This is another blow against vaccine uptake in general, where for example, we are seeing the return of Measles outbreaks in the US and unnecessary deaths.”

As if turd brown Cheetos or Cheeze-itz’s or Doritos will miraculously become healthy foods when the food dyes are eliminated.
