Every reputable expert I know considers mRNA vaccine technology to be one of the most revolutionary advances in medicine in our lifetimes. Its inventors won the Nobel Prize in 2023. Shutting it down now is pointless self-harm to humanity.

I love GitHub and I think Microsoft has done a great job after the acquisition. I think however that they desperately need to take a step back, replace the CEO, and make sure that the next one has some kind of media training. What Thomas Dohmke wrote is unacceptable.
