The mRNA Vaccine Patent Fight Expands | Science | AAAS

So Moderna has announced that they are filing patent infringement suit in the US and in Germany against Pfizer and BioNTech over mRNA vaccine intellectual property. This is not completely unexpected - and by that I don’t mean to imply that Moderna necessarily has a case, because I’m not sure if they do or not. It’s just that there is almost never an example of a breakthrough biopharma technology that does not end up setting off a flurry of patent lawsuits. For better or worse, this is the norm.
