STOCKHOLM (AP) — Two scientists won the Nobel Prize in medicine on Monday for discoveries that enabled the creation of mRNA vaccines against COVID-19 and that could be used to develop other shots in the future.
I’m so glad that quack who claims he helped invent the mRNA vaccine getting completely forgotten as he was one of the biggest misinformation vaccine peddlers during the pandemic.
Yeah what was that guys deal? My family loved to send me clips of the dude spreading all kinds of bullshit.
Katalin Karikó, born in 1955 in Szolnok, Hungary, senior vice president at BioNTech RNA Pharmaceuticals until 2022, now external consultant.
Drew Weissman, born in 1959 in Lexington, Massachusetts, USA, RNA researcher and patent holder, that were used in the BioNTech & Moderna Covid-19 vaccines.
Leave it to medicine to patent life saving technology instead of putting it out there for the general good of everyone.
Here is an article from 2021 that has a network analysis of how vaccine patents are licensed between pharmaceutical companies. Licensed patents are still better than nothing.
These guys are heroes. Doing their job, but they came in clutch and saved millions of lives.
I bet Bill Gates is feeling really cheated right about now. All those years iterating through the different versions Windows and 5G, building the perfect virus, only to have these two quacks steal his thunder.
Bill Gates’s work may make him eligible for the peace prize, but he is NOT a doctor, clinician, or medical researcher. He shouldn’t be eligible for the medicine prize.
Woooosh
literally saved the world for humanity
