I support Kennedy’s decision to stop funding mRNA vaccine development through BARDA. Yet the question remains: How can Kennedy, or anyone, justify the study, authorization, or administration of any mRNA vaccines ever, in any population, based on this understanding?

What would happen if the weights got into the “wrong hands” and people started to be targeted intentionally? There can be no probable cause when using AI targeting systems, but would it even matter? What if probable cause was made up?
