Moderna Partnering with Astrazeneca to create a Therapeutic to fight Heart related issues

"What if #mRNA could treat life-threatening #cardiovascular diseases such as #HeartFailure? We are collaborating with @AstraZeneca on an mRNA therapeutic (AZD8601) that encodes for VEGF-A to promote recovery of cardiac function through tissue regeneration."



Moderna Reveals Slightly Higher Rates of Myocarditis in Young People Who Received Its COVID-19 Vaccine

"Moderna’s chief medical officer said in a call with reporters on Thursday that its COVID-19 vaccine offers a high level of protection against severe disease, hospitalization, and death from COVID-19, but it comes with a higher—yet still relatively rare—risk of heart problems."

why's this political?

why's this political?

no idea, but the mystery of why the heart tissue is the only organ tissue that doesn't regenerate has been a mystery people have been trying to solve for years.  If they can figure out how to turn it back on, that would be huge.  However, I'm sure there's some conspiracy theory being drummed up as we converse.

 

[lod001]

I'm not at all surprised. Can't say I didn't warn ya. AstraZeneca involved? Their garbage was the worst.

Moderna garbage for young people "slightly higher" cases of myocarditis.  Yeah right, 'slightly'. WTH happened to 'safe & effective'?  

 

[jobarules]

Are you going for "they created the cure for the disease they created" angle?

Just wait til Pepsi starts making diabetus pills.

by all means, let's go back to leeches and a life expectancy of 30.

I thought she peaked when she did “Like a Virgin” at the MTV Awards but if she pulls this off she’s a legend.

You're not wrong.  And you'd be amazed at how good medical science is at keeping people who would have died even 25 years ago alive for an extra 5 years.  There's not only the pharmaceutical therapies but medical interventions are being done at a far later age than they used to be.  Back in 2000, no one older than say 70 would be getting new hips and knees, now we throw them in folks close to 90.  It's amazing how good we've gotten at keeping people alive considering how horrible most people treat their bodies.

Good question.  If there's one thing that unites people across the political divide, it's tackling long-running chronic health problems and extending the horizon of high-quality life for our seniors and thei

on that ....

my uncle is 75 ... he's battled covid virus for about 6 weeks ... 3 weeks before going to dr, 1 week ICU, last 2 weeks ventilator. They did a tracheostomy two days ago with the plan of moving him to a long term facility. He hasn't been conscious in 3 weeks. He's probably 1/3 the body weight when he went in. Kidneys, lungs, some other organ issues .... maybe brain has all been impacted. A machine keeps him alive. 

lets pretend he lives, he miraculously comes back and gets off that machine and in some way breathes on his own. His body has wasted to nothing. He's not eaten solid food in weeks/months ... he'll not be able to walk, who knows what capacity his speech will be, brain etc. 

for a man who lived/worked all day long all his life, who has a 280 acre farm, 65 head of cattle, dogs, cats .... he DOES things all day long ... what would you project his quality of life to be?  medical science/technology kept him alive ..... but is it REALLY living ?

rewind 40 years, and he'd have died 2 weeks ago

I understand your example and it's real.  But we are really good at keeping folks alive, conscious, and mobile too.  Note all the scooters everywhere these days.

Sorry to hear about your uncle, you're right, that is no way for a proud, self reliant man to go out.

I watched my father in law die everyday for 4 months until he finally did .... more than once to an ER to "save" him and ... that experience changed me

Most people who want to send their loved ones to a facility to have a machine keep them alive is doing it for themselves, not that person. Medical Power of Attorney's .... everyone should have that designated and what they want done known.

I know we rarely agree and you're not a fan of mine but we're 100% on the same page here.  And my reaction to your post is honest and not meant at all in a mocking way.

Best to you and your family.

Unfortunately the answer is that it’s political because extremists on both the left and the right have targeted “Big Pharma” as an enemy.

Let’s get a list of all of the officials who own their stock, then it’s political.

My father was in that same situation.  He never expressed his wishes, had a massive stroke.  He was in a coma and never came out.   He could have had a feeding tube and to to a facility 90 miles away - no thanks.

Yes!   I have been hoarding leeches for a long time and it looks like it might pay off!

Just wait for the HIV pivot.

Start hiding leeches

Will that be before or after the Kraken is released and the massive election fraud of 2020 is uncovered?
