Katalin Karikó and Drew Weissman won the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for pioneering mRNA technology that led to the development of effective mRNA vaccines against Covid-19.

 The Nobel committee on Monday lauded Karikó and Weissman, whose collaboration began some 15 years ago at the University of Pennsylvania, for their work on nucleoside-modified mRNA. The research laid the foundation for the mRNA technology used in Pfizer –BioNTech and Moderna ’s vaccines against Covid-19. The Nobel committee praised their work for saving millions of lives and fundamentally changing our understanding of how mRNA interacts with immune systems.

Crimes Against Humanity. Pure and simple.

The Nobel Foundation lost all credibility when they gave Hussein the Peace Prize when all he did was not get aborted after having a black father.

Really doesn't mean anything anymore. Obama won one his first week in office. Sort of like the Heisman. Popularity contest. Now when Sheldon and Amy won one, that was real (The Big Bang Theory for those out of touch).

Oh, he did WAY more than that! He should be tried as a war criminal for his illegal drone campaign.

This the same Nobel Prize they gave Obama for peace right before he started warmongering and destroyed the government in Lybia? Reducing Lybia to civil war and its population reeling?

That Nobel Prize?

The Nobel Prize has been reduced to “thanks for doing what we say” prize.

IT’s reputation has already been completely destroyed. It’s value much less. It’s just merely a participant trophy.

This is expected now. Not surprising. So there is no reason to get agitated over the predictable.

It would probably help their case if their experimental bioweapon was actually a vaccine...

... AND prevented recipients from getting COVID...

... OR prevented recipients from spreading COVID...

... OR didn't need wholesale redefining of what a "vaccine" was on the CDC website to fit their purposes.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and saying that straight up KILLING thousands by inducing cardiac episodes in the name of trying to minimize effects of a disease with a 99.997% survival rate for folks under 65 would've helped, too.

Obama won a Nobel Peace Prize before serving his first year in office.

If that didn’t kill their credibility, nothing will.

Literally, the only good thing this imbecile did in his entire term was to be a cheerleader for rapid vaccine development, and then he shxts all over it as soon as he can.

It's always puzzled me that the right gets their feelings hurt over this. The Nobel Prize is awarded to the person they think did the most to "advance fellowship among nations, the abolition or reduction of standing armies, and the establishment and promotion of peace congresses". All three of these things are things that right wingers adamantly oppose. So why would you be envious over Obama getting a Peace Prize? Shouldn't your response be more like "Hey look, he's exactly who we said he was, he even won a prize for it!" ???

Obama had not even served a year and did NOTHING to promote peace. In fact, his policies in defense racked up a massive body count of innocents while trying to drone strike targets.


Getting it shortly after being elected is the “Born On Third Base” award. He got it for not being George W Bush.

Don’t lower yourself to making moronic statements like this.

It's not envy, retard. We're pointing out the futility of giving a historcally-prestigous award to someone who literally did nothing but "Be (Half) Black".

Not when his policies killed THOUSANDS of civilians in the Middle East via a prodigious drone strike program. Add to the mix that he pretty much singlehandedly created ISIS to have a reason to terrorize the region and I'm thinking that's the slightest bit disqualifying for a "Peace Prize."

If he got Israel and multiple Arab nations to the table to make historic ground on multilateral peace agreements, we might be cooking with gas....

Which is why I don’t take potshots at Jimmah for his.

He got Israel and Egypt (Sadat) to make peace which has pretty much lasted outside of the Muslim Brotherhood being installed by Obama, who were subsequently deposed.

Not too surprising, the same type of leftist Globalists handed out Pulitzers for Russia, Russia, Russia....knowing full well it was all BS.

There's someone who did something similar much more recently who was conspicuously overlooked for this achievement.
