Covid: Firm behind vaccine to set up base in UK

US drug firm Moderna is going to build a new research and manufacturing centre in the UK to develop vaccines against new Covid variants and viruses.And, under the agreement, the UK has made a commitment to buy Moderna's vaccines for the next decade.This uses bits of genetic code to cause an immune response by presenting the body with instructions to build immunity to a virus.

It has proved to be one of the fastest routes to developing vaccines during the pandemic and experts believe the technology could help in other areas such as cancer, flu and heart disease.Health Secretary Sajid Javid said the partnership would "cement the UK's status as a science superpower", significantly boosting the economy and creating jobs.

The results suggested the scale of the response was similar to what the firm's current vaccine achieved against the original version of Covid. The emergence of new variants has made all the vaccines currently being used less effective, particularly at preventing infection.The company said it has already produced several hundred million doses so could be ready to start supplying it from the end of summer if approved.

More evidence of the end of civilisation

Why are they not building this in thier own country, or does federal laws stop them from experimenting on the public, so they are buillding thier guinea pig labs here instead.
