Messenger RNA, or mRNA, vaccine technology burst onto the scene early in the COVID pandemic, leaving many people playing catch-up on the science behind the advance. Within the first six months of their availability, COVID vaccines prevented some eight million COVID infections, one study has shown.
But despite the vaccines’ success, critics have fought against the COVID shots’ rollout and mRNA vaccine technology more broadly. Recently, the Trump administration’s Food and Drug Administration initially declined to review an mRNA vaccine for influenza. The FDA has since reversed its decision, but the Trump administration has made other moves to target the technology, including cutting nearly $500 million in grant funding for mRNA vaccine projects. Despite setbacks, many scientists believe mRNA vaccines will not only help control infectious disease but also improve cancer treatment. http://spklr.io/6040EyVd6
