mRNA vaccine research is on the chopping block which is esp. concerning given they can be developed & manufactured faster than vaccines using traditional platforms - which is an extremely helpful feature to have if you need to…say..quickly develop a life-saving vax for a rapidly emerging pandemic.
The National Institutes of Health is terminating dozens of studies examining why people are hesitant about vaccines and how to increase uptake. mRNA vaccine research may be on the chopping block, too.
NIH cuts funding for vaccine hesitancy research and and may target mRNA research too

America was given a choice between a lawless, amoral monster and a qualified, intelligent, joyful woman of color—and it chose the monster. We need to reckon with the reality of what that says about so many of us here.

You might have missed it, but Amazon warehouse workers in Raleigh, NC are voting this week on whether to form a union.
If they win, they'll be the first unionized Amazon facility in the South.
Remember that we can always find hope in the labor movement.

I don't know if anyone caught it during the Treasury rally today, but. Rep. McIver straight-up said that her Republican colleagues are leaving their phones off the hook because they don't want to hear from their constituents. THAT is what Dems should be preaching from every corner, every day.

If the current crop cannot demonstrate they care more about democracy than enjoying three-day weekends, we should flood the zone and challenge them all.

Primary Every Democrat
It’s exhausting to watch poll-tested, donor-beholden congressional Democrats continue to be too old, too cloistered, and too bumbling to do anything as the government burns.
