Lots of other interesting science presentations, and a great opportunity to network and make connections with those in the field. Still time to register if you haven't already. An important event for the growing RNA community.

Against all evidence to the contrary RFK sets back vaccine research and impoverishes Americans defence against pandemics- another asault on evidence science.

Unbelievably short sighted
The cessation of a lot of US foreign aid will have enormous consequences on the health of the world's people for years to come. The abrupt, no-notice nature of that move took the devastation next level. www.statnews.com/2025/03/19/t...
'We've vanished': U.S. aid cuts leave health workers around the world reeling
The cuts to U.S. foreign aid could result in the resurgence of some diseases. They've also forced health workers out of their jobs.

Shocking
This is what we mean when we say the regime is censuring science.

“CDC staff should not be co-authors on manuscripts/abstracts with WHO staff,” nor publish papers on work "funded by WHO.”

#HHS has canceled the March meeting of outside experts who were to advise #FDA on what next winter's #flu shots should target. The irony of this: Canceling #VRBPAC makes the US more reliant on the WHO-led strain selection process. www.statnews.com/2025/02/26/f...
