Yes, but many of new therapies, such as mRNA vaccines, were slow to receive approval, and have been sitting on the drawing board for a decade

- whymauri 5y agoSure, but maybe the flu isn't the best example. I'm long MRNA and big fan of the vaccine's technology. It was a biochem nerd dream getting my first shot!
- passivate 5y agoAgreed, but it was given a temporary emergency approval due to the pandemic. We need long term data on technologies before we immunize hundreds of millions of people with it.
- 8note 5y agoHuh? How many millions have been immunized so far with it?
- passivate 5y agoWhat question did you have for me? I see your comment as a statement.
- hilbertseries 5y agoThe point is clear you said > We need long term data on technologies before we immunize hundreds of millions of people with it. But we have already done this, hundreds of millions of people have received the mRNA vaccines.
- passivate 5y agoWe don't have long term (5+ years) data though, which was my point. It was authorized as an emergency measure due to the pandemic.
