Moderna working to combine flu and coronavirus vaccines
(Worthy News) – Moderna said it’s working on combining the flu vaccine with its COVID-19 vaccine.
Moderna CEO Stephane Bancel told CNBC’s Squawk Box that the Massachusetts-based biotechnology company is developing a vaccine that will protect against both illnesses, reducing the number of booster shots recipients will have to get.
“This virus, as I’ve said before … is not going to go away. It is not leaving the planet. We have to live with it, and we’re living with it like we live with flu. … And so, what we’re trying to do at Moderna, actually, is to get a flu vaccine in the clinic this year and then combine our flu vaccines with COVID vaccines so that you only have to get one boost,” he said Wednesday morning.
