Moderna (MRNA) is down sharply this morning following a report that “human error” was to blame for the metal contaminants in COVID-19 vaccine doses that led Japan to suspend the use of 1.63 million doses.
No matter that the recall was announced in August nor that we’re talking about 1.63 million out of the 1 billion doses Moderna projects it could produce this year. We need to roll our spread now to avoid assignment.
