If we hadn't had a pandemic in which lots of people lost their collective minds and an irresponsible political machine that took advantage of that, mRNA would be pretty universally hailed as the miracle it is.

This article asserts that white blood cells are the target, but we also know that (within the brain) astrocytes and [iirc] microglia can bear latent infection.

Is such a carrier capable of addressing latent reservoirs inside the blood-brain barrier? Can it cross the barrier, pervade the cerebrospinal fluid, then penetrate all infected cells?

White blood cells are a fantastic achievement, but far from the whole story.
