TOKYO, Aug 26 (Reuters) -
Japan suspended the use of 1.63 million doses of
Moderna Inc's
(MRNA.O) COVID-19 vaccine on Thursday, more than a week after the domestic distributor received reports of contaminants in some vials.
..I believe they found metal in the vaccine?
Foreign substance detected in Moderna vaccine in Japan may be metal

Scary.
Moderna price dropped on the contaminants vaccine news. It was a trending story on Twitter...I suspected some people made a quick pretty penny Shorting the negative news.
Then Moderna quickly bounced back higher to higher highs in comparison to the high price on the day of the breaking news. Stock symbol MRNA.
Yet, I do remember last year a company that makes a large supply of face masks had to trash a large supply of their face masks because there was lead or something found in the wiring of the face mask.
- People Shorted MRNA for a few days and the company quickly retraced back its losses.
Earlier this year, there was a Nurse arrested for injecting Covid vaccines into people that the vaccines either was not a vaccine
or contained contaminants put in the vaccines by the nurse. It turns out she had a social media history of being anti-vaccine advocate.
These stories remind me of the days of the
Tylenol poisons in which some people wanted to give the drug company a bad reputation via cleverly lacing Tylenol with potassium cyanide that killed many people.
Anyone that knows a little about Potassium Cyanide...its a key ingredient in the darkroom photography process. You couldn't find it anywhere during that recall of thousand of lots of Tylenol after they discover how Tylenol was tampered with.
Many high schools in the North Suburbs in the wealthy neighborhoods that had photography darkrooms, photo businesses were searched even though Potassium Cyanide could be purchased by anyone from a darkroom supply store.
It greatly impacted the stock prices of the drug maker Johnson & Johnson (stock symbol JNJ)...making millions of dollars for institutional trading firms that Shorted on the Tylenol poison news including Shorting chemical companies that made Potassium Cyanide.
My point, there are some sick people out there that have such strong negative views against drug companies...they will commit murder if needed to show the drug is unsafe and others will profit big time off the news via Shorting it and then running the stock price back upwards to higher levels in their Long positions.
I call this Blood Money...its a sick part of life.
