I see that " safety " is not among the top ten concerns of vaccine

development. But shelf life and putting in more aluminum is!

What Are the Top Ten Challenges Cited By Scientists in Vaccines

Development?

-Improving Compliance Through Better Understanding of Regulatory

Requirements

-Formulating More Thermostable Vaccines

-Defining and Implementing a Development Plan Leading To a

Commercially Viable Cancer Vaccine

-Utilizing Forced Degradation and Accelerated Study Practices When

Developing Vaccines

-Improving Stability and Robustness When Developing Influenza

Vaccines

-Taping Into Methods to Advance Vaccine Stability Testing to

Minimize -Development Changes

-***Using Aluminum-Containing Adjuvants Effectively For Improved

Formulation and Stability***

-Identifing and Solving Potential Adjuvant-Antigen Formulation Issues

-Addressing the regulatory issues arising from incorporating a new

adjuvant in your vaccine

-Using Innovative Vaccine Delivery Techniques and Predict Their

Impact on Formulation and Stability Studies

I just saw an ad for this when looking at the PHARMA campaign

contributions from October. Eww is right. " faster commercialization " ?

That couldn't be scarier.
