As the US moves to ban mRNA vaccine and cancer research, other countries want the US-based scientists to move and continue their research with them.

mRNA vaccines stopped Covid and will protect against H5N1 bird flu if it becomes a pandemic. [Scientists say H5N1 is now here to stay](https://futurology.today/post/4111610), and even if it doesn’t cause a pandemic, another virus will.
[mRNA cancer treatments](https://www.mskcc.org/news/can-mrna-vaccines-fight-pancreatic-cancer-msk-clinical-researchers-are-trying-find-out)—a breakthrough approach—use mRNA to teach the immune system to fight cancer. Trials are testing both custom and pre-made vaccines.
But in the U.S., this research risks losing funding or even being banned. The good news? Other countries want to keep it going. EU and Swedish science leaders like [Maria Leptin and Sten Linnarsson](https://archive.ph/Olk9y) are already offering scientists jobs abroad.
Brain drain. By the end of 2024 you’re going to see a lot of smart people leave the US, probably for EU and Canada, maybe China.
I feel like its safer living as a homeless person in like Japan or something then being a citizen of the US.
Maybe they could just rebrand from “mRNA” cause somehow that specific term has somehow embedded itself into the brain rot lexicon as a trigger point.
Trump’s actions are going to permanently damage USA’s standing in the world, and future economic growth. How can Americans not see this?
They just want all of us to die to take our assets at this point. I’d rather almost be homeless in another developed country than what is about to happen
Most promising medical breakthrough of a generation? Naww we don’t want none. SMH
