The government gives BILLIONS in grants all over the world.

Yes Moderna is very small compared to Pfizer. Those two are the ones that are using messenger RNA[hence Moderna] as the breakthrough process for the vaccine instead of chicken eggs and time. Whatever the financial process both are coming through at unheardof speed. And we should be thankful it's happening.
