Check this out.
Moderna, just one company, is prediction $15 BILLION dollars in sales this year and $22 BILLION next year after their jabs get approved. They will also be rolling out mRNA flu shots. I guess traditional vaccines take too long and these mRNA are just like a computer app so the newer jabs will not have to go thru the entire vaccine approval processes.
They have to go through the same process as anything else. For a seasonal vaccine like the flu, there's an addendum that gets filed to your BLA describing the changes. If an inactivated pathogen is used, a small clinical trial is required each time to demonstrate that the inactivation is working properly. The annual flu shot doesn't have to go through a whole new round of Phase 1, Phase 2, and Phase 3 clinical trials every single year when they slightly tweak the formula. It never has.
But you're right about generation 1 and 2 vaccines being too slow. That's why the flu vaccine is usually only 40-60% effective: it takes months to make and Influenza rapidly mutates. The mRNA platform lends itself to very rapid change because nothing needs to be grown ("cultured"). You simply plug in the nucleotide sequence for the antigens you want and start mass producing. They'll have to do clinical trials for the first mRNA flu vaccine products to get the BLA. Subsequent ones will go very quickly, which means they can wait until we see what flu strains actually hit the US to create a vaccine that targets them. I wouldn't be surprised to see >90% effective flu vaccines once they're available on the mRNA platform for a couple years.
That's great news as it'll save tens of thousands of American lives each year.
That is so Disturbing..
This is why I don’t trust the medical community.
Seven Years ago, on two separate occasions while in the hospital, I was asked if I wanted the flu and pneumonia vaccines.. I declined.. They lamented with “ Well, we can’t force you.” I thought to myself “Yeah, not yet.”
Hm. Out of the family/friends I have who are doctors and nurses, only two have gotten a shot. Five refuse to, and the couple others, I haven’ talked to. But 2/7 isn’t what I would call a “high rate”.
I worked as a medical transcriptionist for 26 years and our hospital department was shut down in 2010 and our jobs were offshored to India because of EMR. A lucrative industry that supported approximately 100,000 women virtually disappeared after that, and any jobs still remaining pay half of what they used to.
There’s also the added “benefit” of having your confidential medical info shipped to a 3rd world country which BTW doesn’t have the same professional liability protection that American medical transcriptionists operated under.
All of the above are consequences of EMR as well as corporate greed, which usually effs up everything.
Flu shots are useless. Never get them I’m I’m just fine. More than likely they make people sick and die. Big Pharma will cease to exist without sick people.
EMRs are the reason Direct Primary Care is the way to go.
Flat monthly fee. You can see the doctor as many times as you want. They don’t take insurance. There are two fee structures for lab and diagnostic tests, one for the doctor and one for patients. A test that costs $2 might cost you, the patient, $100. Direct Primary Care physicians charge you the $2.
It will have to be outlawed because it is so much better than what the feral government wants to herd you into.
This "survey" is junk. Why are you posting junk?
“to try to guilt Grandma into taking that experimental, unproven shot”
Even if I thought the vaccine was safe at the beginning, all the push to get people to take one would make me wonder why. There wa s never the guilt trip or cash prizes to get an annual flu shot.
