Dolly Parton helped fund Moderna's Covid-19 vaccine research: https://edition.cnn.com/2020/11/17/e...rnd/index.html
Good for you, Dolly Parton!
Some celebs get a bit too much coverage for their philanthropic gestures, but DP has stayed sufficiently under the radar that this story came as a complete surprise to me. A well-chosen, non-divisive, humanitarian cause too.
My notion of DP is inextricably bound up with the character she plays so well in
Steel Magnolias , but perhaps it's time to correct that, especially as she wins Batlord's seal of approval, which is not lightly given:-

So quit ****ing around and get into the country, boob, and wig goddess that is Dolly Parton.
