Not to mention the long arcs of the careers of scientists and support staff involved in this breakthrough, who were also supported by federally funded research grants.

Interesting view as many people were so anti-MRNA vaccine because "it was created too fast" oblivious to the years/decades of study in that field that allowed for that "too fast" to happen.

I guess it's still too early in this story's news cycle for the people with anti-views to be making noise yet. No GMOs, but human gene modification is okay. No cloning either. The boogeyman is gonna get us no matter what we do
