Moderna on Monday said its experimental mRNA-based flu vaccine produced a stronger immune response than a currently available shot in a late-stage trial, clearing a path forward for the product and the company’s separate combination flu and Covid jab.
Moderna in May voluntarily withdrew an application seeking approval of its combination shot targeting Covid-19 and influenza, saying it had plans to resubmit it with efficacy data from the phase three trial on its stand-alone flu vaccine. That decision came after discussions with the Food and Drug Administration, which is grappling with a massive overhaul under Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a prominent vaccine skeptic.
With the new data, the company plans to resubmit the application for the combination vaccine and file for approval of its stand-alone flu shot later this year, Stephen Hoge, the company’s head of research and development, said in an interview.
If regulators approve the flu vaccine, the company can then advance the combination shot, Hoge said. He added that Moderna expects approvals for both shots next year pending reviews.

The catch is it has to be injected into the left testicle to be effective.
I used to get flu vaccines yearly not because they were perfect protection but they were based on predicted dead viral strains A&B and could lessen the severity of flu if contracted. Covid vaccines were the spike proteins which can play havoc on the system. Now that they’re going to combine flu shot with Covid mRNA there’s no way I’m getting flu shots. Why does everything have to get screwed over and monkeyed with?
Just went through what i think is the ‘dreaded’ “Razor Blade Throat” Covid variant- Meh- if it was the variant- it was nothing- sore throat for a day- fever- some aches- and yeah, the throat hurt, but honestly Ive had worse colds before! (To be fair, maybe this was a cold, and not the variant- I wasn’t about to even get it checked)-
meant to say... point being, covid is nothign mroe than a cold at this point mostly- don’t need no steenkeen mRNA vaccines!
That just means it is safe and effective./s
With that said, every leftist on the planet should plan to roll up their sleeve(s).
I choose to point and laugh. /pureblood
Great, a flu shot that is 17% effective instead of 16% - not to mention the side effects.
Covid?? Yea I’ve heard of it. Common cold has two viruses. Rhino and Corona (Hint, hint). Never did CDC track common cold deaths (Wink). Trump was on track to landslide so a head fake was needed. Big Pharma made a killing while killing to put it bluntly. Now they are trying to clean up the mess while still using the great rona scare to cover their tracks. The lie cannot die else it would expose the real truth that we all know it to be. I predicted this back in the initial stages while bucking the diaper at every corner.
They’ve had years to develop COVID vaccines now. Are there any that aren’t based on the spike protein?
I will not be jabbed.
Woe to he who tries.
I used to get a flu shot every year, but won't ever get one again since they pushed the Covid jabs. You can't trust what they're putting in you anymore.
Sorry, I still want the conventional protein-based senior flu vaccine!
Long ago, I posted the transcript of a JFK Jr. video in which he made the case that we never needed flu shots in the first place.
He asks people, “Have you ever known anyone who died of the flu.” In all his years of asking, one person said ‘yes.’ He said if the flu was as dangerous as ‘they’ (medical regime) say it is, we’d all know someone who died of the flu.
JFK Jr. said the problem is pneumonia - people are more likely to die of pneumonia. So the CDC combines the numbers of pneumonia and flu and reports them together, to ‘pad’ flu numbers and justify pushing the flu shot on everyone.
I checked the .gov CDC charts at that time, (and since) and he’s right about them combining the numbers. The old charts (pre Covid) had ‘PI’ in the title of the CDC seasonal flu charts. That stands for Pneumonia/Influenza). With Covid, those charts became PIC for Pneumonia/Influenza/Covid.
I think there was never a need for them to combine the totals other than deception.The Covid ‘PCR’ test was not based on the Covid virus because the CDC said an isolated sample of the C19 virus was ‘not available’ when the test was developed. Therefore, the PCR ‘test’ was based on a ‘related Corona virus.’ (Only the CDC said there was no related virus - C19 was supposedly completely new to our immune systems). So Covid era charts were reporting Pneumonia/Influenza/? data.
Then the former Chief of Science for PFizer’s Allergy and Infectious diseases (forgetting his name right now) said that a researcher tested survivors of SARS (2003) and found they were still immune to SARS all these years later (17 years at the time tested) and that they were also immune to Covid19 because there was enough overlap between the two diseases.
It makes sense to me that we wouldn’t need to actually experience every potenetial strain of influenza to be immune to it. Part of the virus is familiar and the body attacks it. So I don’t believe ‘annual’ flu shots were ever needed. Sadly,I think they’ve been experimenting on us for years.
One of my friends had to take covid shots and boosters to keep working. Total of four Moderna shots.
after that, she caught covid and had it four times. Once so seriously that I had to buy groceries for her and take them to her door..
No mRNA in anything.
Moderna:
The ‘Brawndo’ of ‘vaccines’.
Now Super Safe and Super Effective.
It’s got what your body craves!!!
They’re still trying to kill us.
I’ve never had a flu shot, for two reasons:
1. It seems like the shots make a lot of people sick, and
2. I don’t remember ever having the flu. I might have when I was really young, but I haven’t within my memory.
I won’t take a flu shot, a Covid shot, an RSV shot, a shingles shot, or any other of the various vaccines they keep pushing. My immune system seems to be working just fine, at least so far.
You raise an interesting point.
“We” is not us because we’re not stupid.
That stated, maybe I don’t have a problem with this.
Ya know?
Ummmmm....no
From last year, but I just ran across it. 90 seconds on CoupFlu vaxxes with receipts set to music. Holy bleep.
