Moderna CEO claims Covid vaccines will evolve like ‘an iPhone’

That doesn’t infuse confidence. I’ve used iPhones.

Forget taking two to three Covid shots a year. Moderna hopes to roll out a single-dose annual booster to cover the coronavirus, the flu and another common respiratory virus within the next five years.

As Covid-19 continues to mutate, Moderna will need to keep updating the vaccines that turned it into a global household name while trying to make it more convenient for consumers, CEO Stéphane Bancel said in an interview with CNN Business Wednesday.

He estimated a timeline of “three to five years” for the new combined product, and likened the development of the life-saving jab to that of a smartphone.

“You don’t get the amazing camera, amazing everything the first time you get an iPhone, but you get a lot of things,” he said.

“A lot of us buy a new iPhone every September, and you get new apps and you get refreshed apps. And that’s exactly the same idea, which is you’ll get Covid and flu and RSV [respiratory syncytial virus] in your single dose.” more here

    No you get blood clots, myocarditis, Heart attacks, Sudden death syndrome and the tendency to collapse on soccer fields. What will future upgrades bring ya?

  2. Bribing public officials to insulate yourself from future liability while manufacturing a product people blindly purchase, over and over ad infinitum…..sounds like the perfect business model.

  3. Like an iPhone, eh, Stéphane? OK, then, take a selfie. Oh, that one isn’t very good so take another selfie. Just to be sure, take one more selfie. Y’know what? I think you’ll look better standing over there, so go on over and take another selfie. No, over here is even better, so take another selfie. Oh, c’mon! They’re GOOD for you!

    Just keep taking Moderna selfies and everything will be OK.

  4. A never ending expense, that is a time waster for your short life that you could live without and be much happier with less stress. I’m good just the way mother nature set things up.

  5. The only way “annual vaxes” work is if you know beforehand which variants are expected in the coming year. Track record for influenza ~50%, after what 100 years of practice?

    The only way to “know” beforehand, if this is truly “novel” (new) corona virus, is that they have a pool of source from which to draw different variants. Say in a bio-weapons lab in China or Ukraine.

    How about we round these people up and sanitize them?

  6. It’s the Gates tie in: if you don’t buy their “software upgrade”, one day your head explodes while you’re kicking back watching “America’s Got Talent”.
    You heard it here first.

  7. he’s assuming it is a vaccine
    it is not a vaccine
    it is an attempt at pre-emptive genetic manipulation/therapy
    only a fool will submit to repeatedly injecting random Mrna snippets into their body.

  8. I’m guessing rich liberals get a new iPhone every year-so let them get that shiny new yearly Moderna vax too.

    My iPhone is 6 years old and it’s doing just fine without an upgrade to it’s DNA. 😉

  9. The Moderna Covid “vaccine” is similar to an iPhone, which mysteriously has increased virus/hacking vulnerability every time it’s upgraded. No thanks to both!

  10. \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\”Trying to make it more convenient.\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\” how thoughtful. But most people have been seeing this as coerced, forced or be fired.
    Wonder if anybody\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\’s going to take these people to court for false advertising? \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\”Safe and effective.\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\”
    Not so much.

  11. Samsung Flip Phone here.
    No internet or e-mail.
    Battery lasts 2 days without constantly searching for a charge station.

    No ability whatsoever to install a COVID TRACKING/ALERT APP.

  12. He has discovered the trick of CLAIMING ANYTHING.

    His scheme fails miserably when you consider what lies after this mortal world. What a stupid chump.
