mRNA Vaccines: A New Frontier in Disease Prevention
mRNA vaccines have saved millions of lives during the COVID-19 pandemic, and now scientists are utilizing this Nobel Prize-winning technology to develop vaccines and treatments against various diseases, including cancer and cystic fibrosis.
However, Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a longtime vaccine critic, has canceled $500 million in government-funded research projects for new mRNA vaccines against respiratory illnesses that could trigger another health emergency.
This move dismays infectious disease experts, who note that mRNA allows for faster production of shots than older vaccine-production methods, buying precious time if another pandemic were to emerge.
Authors summary: The mRNA vaccines technology is being used to develop new treatments.
