This is basically hair-on-fire, house-on-fire, everything falling apart story for BioTech, a disastrous corruption of an already difficult review process.

There's a general feeling that if Moderna had donated a few million dollars to the new White House Ballroom, they could have rescued the massive cost of the flu vaccine trial. Which is an admission that the US government is plainly and openly corrupt. It's doubtful that the board of Moderna would have ever allowed that sort of donation though, due to its naked corruption.
