African Civil Society Slams Moderna Attempt to 'Derail' Vaccine Project
"A coalition of civil society groups on Monday accused Moderna of trying to use patent protections to "derail" South African scientists' nascent attempt to produce an mRNA-based coronavirus vaccine of their own, without the support of the pharmaceutical industry or rich countries.
