Happened last year, still spite over the COVID vaccine. As referenced in the article:
As such, Moderna and Merck call their mRNA cancer vaccine a type of “neoantigen therapy.”
The term avoids both “mRNA” and “vaccine,” which draw hostility from Trump’s anti-vaccine Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. In addition to his concerted efforts to undermine lifesaving vaccines, Kennedy has canceled hundreds of millions of dollars in federal grants for the development of mRNA vaccine technology.
Not sure if this keyword strategy is what saved the program or if this was one of the ones allowed despite the cuts due to so much taxpayer money already invested.
It’s honestly hard to tell if it’s just Trump waffling, wanting to claim success for something he had nothing to do with, forgetting about this project, getting fooled by the switch in wording, or if they bribed or flattered him before it got cancelled. When so much ego and corruption is involved, it could really be anything.
I’m so excited… For RFK and the US government to ban this due to some yet to be determined autism related reason.

It was spring 2025 where the red state leaders were trying to ban mRNA vaccines, but that never went anywhere to my knowledge, hence the funding being cut to research instead.
Nice, getting rid of the competition.

Either that or the shot will cost $1 billion.
1 billion and they’ll give it to every 90 year old then say oh… it’s too expensive for those actually working or in school.
Mumbling with a mouth full of gravel: the vaccine changes your DNA and regrows your foreskin and autism.
Tbh, that sounds like the opposite of a problem.
Still, fuck RFk Jr., he’s a bastard
I mean, if he says it it’s wrong so…
