A 2017 article from "Stat News" is revisited, revealing that Moderna faced significant safety hurdles and technical failures with its mRNA technology years before the pandemic. The report suggests that the COVID-19 crisis served as a "miraculous Hail Mary" for the company, which had previously struggled to produce viable results for Wall Street investors.

A report aired on NPR, produced in partnership with Stat News, discusses Texas legislation aimed at banning gender-affirming care for minors. The segment features arguments that such care is "medically necessary" and that weaning children off puberty blockers is not based on science. Critics of the report point to its scripted nature and the influence of its owner, John Henry, and his ties to tech elites like Eric Schmidt.

Prior to the recent NIH success, Remdesivir faced negative press following a leaked video from the University of Chicago and reports on the health news site STAT. Initial interpretations of the data were considered disappointing, causing Gilead's stock to sink. Critics point out that the recovery time improvement now being celebrated was previously dismissed as statistically insignificant "office chatter."
