To be clear, this is a new product that Novavax is trying to introduce to the market with a study of a different product from 2021. New products require new clinical studies. Under this administration, we are prioritizing the Gold Standard of Science--not what saves pharma companies "tens of millions of dollars." Headline: "FDA Asks Vaccine Maker to Complete New Clinical Trial for Delayed Covid-19 shot"
Again, they're trying to take away our vaccines.
From the head of the FDA, a gross misrepresentation of the annual process of updating a proven vaccine to target new disease strains.
His plan would make it impossible to get seasonal flu and Covid shots, and of course he knows this.
Reliability of a difference score vs. reliability of an interaction term.

My 12 y/o son was willfully ignorant of politics until he calculated the potential cost of a Switch 2 with tariffs. Now he is radicalized.

It's deadly to the US economy.
The US is a world leader in tech due to the ecosystem that NIH and NSF propel. It drives innovation for tech transfer, creates a highly-skilled sci/tech workforce, and fosters academic/industry crossfertilization.
Has this news even come out in the media yet? I canβt find it. Massive death blow to the US biomedical research enterprise @shalenegupta.bsky.social

I want to provide some context on what that means and why it matters.

It is simply not enough for universities to say, βOur grants & research offices are looking into how research will be affected by the latest directive.β
University leaders must actively and very publicly make the case for the kind of work many of us do. The silence on this front is deafening.
The entire website for the NIH Office of Research on Women's Health (ORWH) is very nearly stripped bare. This is so, so devastating. orwh.od.nih.gov/research/fun...
