Reacción a "Reactions: Nobel Prize in Physiology awarded to Karikó and Weissman for their discoveries that led to the development of effective mRNA vaccines against covid-19"

I think it is a completely correct Nobel Prize that recognises the work of scientists over many years in a fundamental science - I don't like to call it basic, but fundamental - such as the modifications of mRNA that have allowed it to stabilise and be used for therapies, in this case, for vaccines.

It is simply a basic discovery that has allowed these vaccines to be developed in record time because of their stability and because it has been possible to understand how to modify them. Apart from the fact that it has rewarded a team that works very well and has been working for many years without recognition and with almost no support. And on top of that, in the case of the United States, it is always nice to see migrants from other countries who have developed their careers abroad and who achieve this kind of success. It is a joy and, above all, that a woman has been recognised, as we know there are very few [among the laureates], and it is totally deserved.
