Late last week I got @moderna_tx's mRNA vaccines - one each for flu and Covid. Sitting in the @cvspharmacy in Kendall Square, I couldn’t help but reflect on the long and winding road from launching Moderna in 2010 to this moment. Not only have we proven that mRNA vaccines are safe and effective for treating Covid, RSV, and the flu, we are showing that the same technology has significant promise to treat cancer. We are realizing the vision we had so many years ago, of an mRNA platform that we can apply to treat a wide range of terrible diseases. And to see it in action, all I had to do is go to my local pharmacy. Long and winding though the road may be, I have a feeling we’re still only at its beginning. I’m proud of the pioneers at Moderna who have helped get to this point and are working every day to extend the platform to other major unmet medical needs. As an aside: I urge everyone to get your vaccines this fall. It can be easy to forget that flu was once a leading cause of death in the United States. Six years ago Covid killed an estimated 15 million people in 24 months. I don’t take it for granted that we have the tools to take on these viruses - throughout history, most people did not. @CVSHealth
