Now #Moderna expects that none of its other #mRNA #vaccines will be reviewed, and has halted studies on vaccines for EBV, HSV, and shingles.
A lot of people with herpes would be angry if they found out.
A lot of people who have family members with #MS -- now thought to be caused in part by EBV -- will be livid.

Squandering what is probably the most important medical breakthrough of my lifetime because the most unqualified, narcissistic sociopaths somehow got elected because they were the right sort of bigots.
It's so tragic. It's like reading about the collapse of the Roman or Mongol empires due to easily avoidable systematic issues except we're living it. -

@jeneralist They want to depopulate the US. This is just another policy tool to achieve that goal.
-
@jeneralist @ujay68 If they have shareholders anyway. I think non-profits and closely held (I think that's the term) don't have that restriction. But I don't think that applies to any pharmaceutical company.
Moderna has shareholders. It's on the NASDAQ, stock symbol MRNA.

@jeneralist even without MS, EBV is itself such a mess, had it as an adult and I have had my long term health so significantly affected by it
it is such a mess that the USA is handling this badly as a country and that commercial interests are also involved instead of just the good of everyone on the planet

I wonder if a state or two could step in. Pritzker???? -
@Mikal This!
Like so many other science or tech stuff going on in usa... Let's profit of it's stupidity to expand European knowledge/market!@Frieke72 @Mikal @jeneralist BioNTech (the German company that developed the mRNA Covid19 vaccine distributed by Pfizer) is developing vaccines against HSV, Mpox, HIV...
One competitor less, now.

If there's one thing that can be said about the current US administration is that it's airing out all the dirty laundry of the world.
The fact that a pharmaceutical company puts profit over human lives is an abomination. The fact that one single country can hold the rest of us hostages because they allowed themselves to be scammed rather than have universal healthcare is an abomination.
If they ever get out of this, I hope Americans fix their stuff.
@fruitcakesareyum @jeneralist We won't. We're being held hostage by Texas.

@jeneralist So frustratingly corrupt that they halt studies rather than going to court or abroad.
-
I'm not the right person to be explaining the perverse intersection of healthcare and capitalism. The short answer is, most large companies won't do anything that loses money. In fact, in US law they are specifically prohibited from doing things that are expected to lose money.
@jeneralist Understandable. However, it doesn’t seem impossible to me to produce, at a profit, vaccines for the world’s population minus the US population. Not a really negligible target group. I’m no industry specialist, but there might also be … let’s say … other factors behind such a decision?
-

@crazyeddie
Yeah. There are shades of both. We have the obviously inept senate PLUS the obviously unhinged Caligula destroying a world leading economy for no gain (or negative gains due to petty grievances). -
A vaccine manufacturer would normally apply for approval in many jurisdictions.
But for some back-of-the-envelope calculations: new vaccines are generally introduced to more affluent countries first, especially for diseases that aren't immediately fatal. The market for vaccines against EBV, HSV, and VZV would be in this category.
EU: 450M people
Canada: 40M
US: 350MWithout US, the market is AT LEAST 40% smaller. Is it still worth it do to the studies?
@jeneralist but how many US citizens would even be able to afford it?

@jeneralist
We shall need a different model then.
Which might include States (eg those of Europe) not buying vaccines, but developing them and owning the result.
Perhaps some clever Americans might like to come and help. -
Moderna has shareholders. It's on the NASDAQ, stock symbol MRNA.
@jeneralist @ujay68 So basically it's confirming that people in the USA are paying far too much for their medication. And the Pharmaceutical companies don't care too much, because if the people survive to old age they will make bank on them.
-
Is there any reason they couldn't apply for approval in Europe or Canada or some other place that hasn't lost his mind?
@Mikal @jeneralist generally speaking, vaccines are not profitable. Losing a huge market makes them even less so.

@jeneralist at this point I hope everyone in the #USA is doing a #ClassAction against the #FDA and that people in the #EU will do the same since #Modena refusing to do R&D despite the EU having an entirely different approval process than the #FDA.

Some of us WITHOUT herpes are pretty mad too. I got vaxxed absolutely as soon as I was able. Watched my father in law suffer greatly for years from this disease.
I'm not sure I'd wish it on RFK junior. It's that bad.

@jeneralist I read a significant body of evidence related to brain decay and herpes, somethin easily escalated within the body, something easily contracted. Good work MAGA for population decline, pain and suffering.
