So, bit of an update on more mRNA vaccines coming to market.

This is all pretty much verbatim from the meeting notes that were released a day or so ago.

This information is being taken out of context.
It is specifically referencing a Moderna RSV vaccine for infants delivered via mRNA which is IN CLINICAL TRIAL. This specific vaccine trial is being halted.

There is no information published (by either the FDA...or the CDC (the true source)) saying that there are issues with any of the APPROVED RSV vaccines.

https://www.cdc.gov/vaccine-safety/vaccines/rsv...

CDC recommends everyone ages 75 and older get an RSV vaccine.
CDC recommends adults ages 60–74 who are at increased risk of severe RSV disease get an RSV vaccine.
The RSV vaccine is not currently an annual vaccine. If you have received an RSV vaccine already (including last year), you should not get another RSV vaccine at this time.
You can get one at any time, but the best time to get vaccinated is in late summer and early fall.

My oncologist would only recommend the flu shot for me. Since my immune system took a hit just recently she didn't recommend getting RSV, shingles, or pneumonia vaccine. I trust my doctor and I listen to her.
