What Baby KJ Taught Us About mRNA COGS
Here, in part 2 of this three-part series, I share a few details that came to light about the COGS behind Baby KJ’s therapy production. Obviously, we know why it’s important to keep these figures in mind as we move forward; but I particularly liked Strauss’ reminder that it’s our job to “think systematically about how we’re going to create a safety net of sustainable, accessible product that can be widely distributed at an affordable cost.”
