#GetTheMessage - Did you know? After 300+ days in the hospital, Baby KJ went home—sitting up, waving, and growing. His parents were once told to consider end-of-life care. Now they're watching him thrive, thanks to mRNA technology.

Thank you Aaron for having the courage to speak out. We need all scientist to follow in Aaron's footsteps, call your local news and give an interview.
What we heard this week 🧵 #MedSky
"This is a really reckless decision." -- @jmcoller.bsky.social, of @jhu.edu, discussing HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s decision to cancel $500 million in funding and wind down development of #mRNA vaccines.

mRNA medicines are the best medicine, but thanks to RFK Jr., laughter will have to be our booster shot! #mRNA, #NewYorker
apnews.com/video/medica... experts react to RFK Jr. canceling $500M in vaccines development projects
Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s decision to cancel $500 million in funding and wind down development of mRNA vaccines is a disastrous one -- especially with the looming threat of an H5N1 avian influenza pandemic, sources told MedPage Today. @jmcoller.bsky.social

This decision risks ceding America's competitive advantage in biotechnology to other nations expanding their investments in mRNA research. American patients may increasingly depend on foreign innovation for breakthrough treatments.

New gene therapy approach targets rare genetic diseases by boosting expression of autism-linked genes. "We stand on the brink of medical breakthroughs—we are so close." @jmcoller.bsky.social www.oneneurojhu.org/2025/06/26/a...
In a new @nature.com e article, BDP @jmcoller.bsky.social talks about mRNA’s potential not just in thwarting infectious threats but also in treating many of the same chronic conditions targeted by RFK Jr’s ‘Make America Healthy Again’ initiative.

Nature reports how the Trump administration’s anti-mRNA sentiment has sparked fears that this once-celebrated technology, widely seen as a major engine of next-generation vaccines and therapeutics, could soon find itself on the chopping block. #medsky 🧪

Thanks - I'm glad as well. It is a time for action.
‘Despite the promise of this technology … we are risking squandering our leadership in the mRNA space in the 21st century,’ @jmcoller.bsky.social, an expert on RNA biology from Johns Hopkins University.
