I hope that Armstrong’s constituents DO recall her. For years she has been literally so bigoted that the extreme RW party she helped start, didn’t want her.

mRNA flu vaccines have better immunogenicity and better efficacy than traditional flu jab, and can be developed, manufactured and updated faster.
By denying US market, Prasad has essentially killed any prospect of a realistic mRNA flu vaccine in any market.
This guy and his RFK army are ghouls.

This is very much the case. The spending of the wealthy is really the only thing propping up the economy at this point.
This morning on @cnbc.com, B of A said the “K-shaped” economy is increasingly about not just the split between high and low-income — but high and MIDDLE-income consumers.

When I took the GRE to apply to sociology PhD programs, the math section had to be competed without a calculator
I will be furious about that until I fucking die
I will be furious about that until I fucking die
the degree to which we let early facility in one thing, arithmetic, be the gating function for exposure to a whole vast array of other things with essentially nothing whatsoever to do with early facility in arithmetic is wild to me, like this 19th century throwback idea hiding in plain sight
Funny story: my career in drones exists because I have a arithmetic learning disability, tested awfully in math and couldn’t study STEM in college, and became so angered by how normal it was to look down upon non-tech people in the 2010s that I decided to master a hard tech field out of pure spite.

I really don’t know how Moderna doesn’t take this as a signal move to Europe. How do you operate like this for another three years if you have a fiduciary obligation to shareholders?

NEW: The F.D.A. refused to accept an application from Moderna for its mRNA flu vaccine.
Its reason: The agency did not think Moderna compared the new vaccine to one of the best flu shots available. The company spent $750M+ on a 41,000 person study.
