The gift that keeps on giving! The gift of a vaccine and hope! An upper cut to the ugly virus, COVID-19! The hope that nobody else has to die from coronavirus!
Back in April, Dolly Parton donated a million dollars to coronavirus research. Here we are seven months later finding out she may have helped save us all.
The money helped Moderna develop a vaccine that’s been almost 95% effective in clinical trials. You can even find her name in the acknowledgments of the New England Journal of Medicine article.
Fact-checking this was worth it just to see @DollyParton in the acknowledgments of a @NEJM article. And I thought I couldn’t love her more. https://t.co/S3njHEFcGT pic.twitter.com/WcrFIrHp67

She was asked about it yesterday on the “Today Show”.
I think we can all learn from Dolly! She invested in the great minds at Vandy and the hope that they could all save us from COVID!
