FDA approves first mRNA flu shot, from Moderna
- andsoitis 2mo agoThis is fantastic. Can't wait for Moderna to broaden their vaccine coverage substantially and also branch into new applications beyond vaccines.
- OutOfHere 2mo agoI guess it remains to be seen if it leads to more profound side effects or not. Taking the Moderna shot for Covid always was 48 hours of hell. As someone who must avoid ibuprofen, it was a special case of hell. During that time, the body's defenses against other infections were also lowered, risking other infections. Seniors could have it worse. I hope it's worth the pain.

- jfengel 2mo agoSorry to hear that. Did you have a better reaction to the protein subunit vaccine (Novavax)?
- OutOfHere 2mo agoI never took any other brand's vaccine for Covid. I felt the Moderna one gives the strongest protection, and that the side effects were worth the resulting benefit from the vaccine. This equation may be different for seniors.
