This is great.
It’s deeply unfortunate that the NYT gave us 19 years of low-key but excellent coverage of Afghanistan, then three weeks of screaming A1 nonsense, and is now back to good stuff off the front pages. https://t.co/mob0xcdqB5

WSJ has a bit more: Moderna wants to do a smaller 50cc dose to reach more people and have fewer side effects. FDA wants 100cc to reduce confusion from changing dosages and avoid wastage from discarding unused doses in a vial.
Policy Qs not efficacy Qs.
