The "data" package Secretary Kennedy used to bolster his argument for discontinuing #BARDA funding for #mRNA research doesn't support his argument. @jakescottmd.bsky.social lays it out in a must read for @statnews.com. https://www.statnews.com/2025/08/13/rfk-jr-mrna-vaccine-research-science-papers-justification-misreading/

#NIH director Jay Bhattacharya says the #BARDA mRNA contracts were terminated because the platform isn't viable because people don't trust it.
Experts question some of the claims Bhattacharya made. https://www.statnews.com/2025/08/11/mrna-vaccines-bhattacharya-bannon/

“We reviewed the science, listened to the experts, and acted,” Secretary Kennedy said earlier this week, when he announced he was discontinuing #BARDA investments in #mRNA vaccines. More on the science he relied on. https://www.statnews.com/2025/08/08/kennedy-scientific-justification-mrna-vaccines/

Axing #BARDA funding for research on #mRNA vaccines is not just a problem for pandemic preparedness, it's a national security threat, experts in that area tell STAT. “We're unilaterally disarming ourselves" — and advertising that fact. https://www.statnews.com/2025/08/07/kennedy-mrna-vaccines-national-security/

Pandemic preparedness in the US has been leveled a crippling blow with the cancellation of multiple #BARDA contracts to help develop mRNA vaccines. No other vaccine platform produces vaccine so quickly; without mRNA, Americans will have a long wait for pandemic vax. https://www.statnews.com/2025/08/05/mrna-vaccine-development-canceled-by-kennedy-hhs/

The rapid production capacity of mRNA vaccines will be key if #H5N1 #birdflu triggers a pandemic. But a review of a #BARDA contract to test & license an H5 vaccine so FDA could accelerate approval in a pandemic is raising about whether this option will be available. https://www.statnews.com/2025/03/03/hhs-moderna-vaccine-contract-bird-flu-pandemic-preparedness-worries/

The #US government will pay #Moderna $176 million to develop an #mRNA #vaccine targeting #H5 and #H7 varieties of #pandemic #influenza—an award given as the highly #pathogenic #birdflu #virus #H5N1 continues to spread widely among US dairy #cattle.
The funding flows through #BARDA, the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority, as part of a new Rapid Response Partnership Vehicle (#RRPV) Consortium. Phase 3 trial anticipated to begin in 2025. https://arstechnica.com/science/2024/07/us-prepares-for-bird-flu-pandemic-with-176m-moderna-vaccine-deal/

Nun war gerade #GratisComicTag und vom #FCBD2024 habe ich #Barda gelesen von #NgoziUkazu - Weniger #MsMarvel und mehr young #Wonderwoman, aber 4.5* für "Macht Lust auf mehr". FCBD Stories sind oft Teaser, bestenfalls Prequel oder Sidequest, hier ersteres, aber seinen Job machend: Ich will weiterlesen. Teaser im Heft ist #NiaNal alias #Dreamer "the first #Trans #Superhero to appear on TV", zuwenig für Hurra. @buchstodon #comics
Übrigens: 21.09.2024 ist wieder #MangaDay

Later this year, #BARDA and the entire #pandemic authority for many issues with expire simply by doing nothing. This should give House #Republicans their only leverage to fix covid fascism. Here are 12 demands they should make in exchange for reauthorizing the PAHPA.
