Moderna is ceasing research on vaccines for Epstein-Barr - the trigger for MS— herpes and shingles because the anti science nutjobs in Trump admin won’t permit trials in the US

In terms of what cures are being lost:

- Epstein-Barr virus is perhaps the major trigger for multiple sclerosis
- herpes simplex virus causes cold sores, genital herpes, infections in babies, deadly meningitis
- shingles virus causes an intensely painful disease
