🇺🇸 Why was Moderna working on a hantavirus vaccine? Since 2023, Moderna has been quietly developing an mRNA hantavirus vaccine with South Korea's VIC-K. Preclinical, mouse trials, no human data yet. Then a cruise ship, the MV Hondius, reports an outbreak of hantavirus cases, resulting in 3 deaths. Moderna’s stock spikes 10% almost immediately. A vaccine that is still years from human trials, for a virus that doesn't spread easily between people, suddenly moves markets because a boat had an outbreak. Hantavirus kills 30-40% fatal in severe cases. There's no approved vaccine anywhere in the Western world. So yes, the concern is real. But the stock move wasn't based on a breakthrough, it was based on fear. And some were positioned for it before the headlines hit. Source: AP

@DefiantLs FCC rules don’t prohibit profanity on cable.



This exchange between @SenBlumenthal and Trump’s judicial nominees is utterly astounding. If you can watch this and still think this country isn’t falling into authoritarianism and fascism under Donald Trump, then you are not being honest with yourself.




If President Trump is able to pull this off, lefticles will lose their damn minds. 😆








Timeless.
