This is absolutely terrible news.

With the shifting regulatory climate (i.e., antivax ratfuckery), Moderna has withdrawn their application for their eagerly anticipated COVID-flu combo vaccine. This vaccine offered better protection than getting each shot separately.

Donald Trump has banned UK from sharing US military intelligence with Ukraine.

US troops, weapons, listening posts are in the UK, but the govt can't share intelligence with allies.
