“Rise to the Challenge with SEQUIVITY®” When I talk about distrusting nascent tech, this is a poster child Merck sells industrial pork producers software that lets them make custom mRNA (technically saRNA) vaccines for their pigs locally It’s already used, but the pork you buy isn’t required to be labeled https://www.merck-animal-health-usa.com/species/swine/sequivity

We don’t know yet, it’s only been in prod for ~2 years In the absence of long term studies, I’d wish there were more disclosures since mRNA vaccines aren’t yet permitted in cattle or poultry. Swine is the guinea pig for now Precautionary principle suggests caution as the default approach Also this line of thinking occludes our focus on animal welfare
