Clearly you've not read any of the studies. I cannot overstate how much your comment amused me. These "guys" are out for the money?? And how much did Pfizer, J&J, Moderna earn - and continue to earn on a vaccine that not only does not eliminate the threat of contracting or spreading the disease, but has caused harm to thousands of recipients? Let me restate that: how much money did they stand to lose if an off label, inexpensive medication was an effective, SAFE prophylactic, and duration and morbidity reducer of Covid-19? Especially when the vaccine had not even been FDA approved yet? Oh, and what percentage of funding does the FDA get from big pharma? Might want to check into that.

"This was compounded by major issues with patents held by a hostile competitor that threatened Moderna’s ability to turn a profit on anything it might manage to take to market, as well as major issues with its mRNA delivery system that led them to abandon any treatment that would require more than one dose because of toxicity concerns. THE LATTER ISSUE, THOUGH LARGELY FORGOTTEN AND/OR IGNORED BY MEDIA TODAY, SHOULD BE A MAJOR TOPIC IN THE COVID-19 BOOSTER DEBATE, GIVEN THAT THERE IS STILL NO EVIDENCE THAT MODERNA EVER RESOLVED THE TOXICITY ISSUE THAT AROSE IN MULTI-DOSE PRODUCTS."

Moderna the new Theranos?

"Whatever the exact cause of the resignation of the head of R & D, it only added to the mystique around Moderna’s inner workings and its ability to deliver on its promise to β€œrevolutionize” medicine. It also reveals more than a few similarities between Moderna and the now-disgraced company Theranos. Theranos, whose former top executive, Elizabeth Holmes, is now on trial for fraud, was known for its extreme culture of secrecy that kept investors and business partners in the dark, forced nondisclosure agreements on everyone who came in contact with the company, and kept employees β€œsiloed” through an extremely strict need-to-know policy. Like Moderna, Theranos had been praised as revolutionary and poised to β€œchange the medical industry forever.” Similarly, its top executive had no professional health-care or science experience, yet both fired or forced the resignations of employees who disagreed with their perspective or were unable to provide β€œpositive” results. Both companies also failed to publish any evidence in peer-reviewed journals that the science behind their multibillion-dollar valued companies was more than just fantasy and a well-devised sales pitch.

"Arguably, the most critical difference between Moderna and Theranos is that Moderna, whose numerous issues and challenges only came to light after the collapse of Theranos had begun, has never faced the same degree of scrutiny from the US government or mainstream investigative journalists. There are many possible reasons for this, including Moderna’s close relationship with the US Department of Defense through the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), or concern that its exposure post-Theranos would bring scrutiny to any company existing at the intersection of Silicon Valley and the health-care industry. However, such a reckoning would likely have been inevitable for Moderna had it not been for the COVID-19 crisis, which could not have come at a more convenient time for the company.

"Such secrecy became commonplace at Moderna after Bancel took the helm, with the company having published no data β€œsupporting its vaunted technology” by the time STAT’s 2016 exposΓ© was published. Insiders as well as investors that had committed millions to the company were only granted β€œa peek” at the company’s data. According to former Moderna scientists who spoke to STAT, the company was β€œa case of the emperor’s new clothes.” Former employees further charged that Bancel was actually β€œrunning an investment firm” and β€œthen hop[ing] it also develops a drug that’s successful.”

I got my second Pfizer shot three weeks ago, 8 months after my first, partly so that I could have dental work done with less hassle. I also keep a supply of horse paste on hand in case I seem to be coming down with COVID. I took it a few times over the summer (with no ill effects), just in case.
