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.

»In August of 2025, following the successful completion of the Phase 3 efficacy trial in which mRNA-1010 met all pre-specified primary endpoints, Moderna held a pre-submission meeting with CBER [Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research]. CBER requested that supportive analyses be included … Moderna provided the additional analyses … At no time in the pre-submission written feedback or meeting did CBER indicate that it would refuse to review the file.«

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 @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.

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.

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.

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

@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.

@jeneralist So frustratingly corrupt that they halt studies rather than going to court or abroad.

@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?
