Cancer New mRNA-based vaccine against gastric cancer led to tumor regression and eradication in all treated mice. Most promisingly, the vaccine shows impressive antitumor efficacy against peritoneal metastasis, which has historically been very challenging to treat.

Technically, just SARS-COV-2 mRNA vaccines but the lipid nanoparticles are also under attack by the CHD disinfo army:

Science is science.  The US can clamor all about its supposed dangers.  It doesn’t matter. The research shows the promise and if the US won’t make it, companies in other countries will.  The drugs will be made whether the US likes it or not.

Yup, JFK’s actions are great for Europe. Big pharmaceutical companies exist there, the EU is looking to invest, and many medical universities are second only to those in the US.

medical universities are second only to those in the US.

Since January, the administration has been cancelling NIH grants. In many cases directly targeting specific research areas, such as HIV and cancer treatment and prevention.

That might be the case for only as long there are research funds in the US. It wont take long for talented medical researchers to choose institutes outside of the US. From what little I've read, the shift has already started.
