Trump administration at ‘war’ with mRNA technology: scientists alarmed vaccine skeptics could kill research

mRNA vaccines stopped Covid and will protect against H5N1 bird flu if it becomes a pandemic. Scientists say H5N1 is now here to stay, and even if it doesn’t cause a pandemic, another virus will.

mRNA cancer treatments—a breakthrough approach—use mRNA to teach the immune system to fight cancer. Trials are testing both custom and pre-made vaccines.

But in the U.S., this research risks losing funding or even being banned. The good news? Other countries want to keep it going. EU and Swedish science leaders like Maria Leptin and Sten Linnarsson are already offering scientists jobs abroad.
