In May 2024, the NSW Government announced the construction of a Ribonucleic Acid (RNA) Research and Pilot Manufacturing Facility at Macquarie University’s Wallumattagal Campus, due to be completed in 2026. The government said it is spending $96 million on the factory, with a further $119 million announced over 10 years for RNA research and development initiatives, such as providing "Australian patients with faster access to new and innovative RNA therapeutics to treat diseases such as cancer and rare genetic diseases."[4] At the beginning of construction, protestors visited the site noting that the bulk of the injured from the coerced mRNA Covid jabs have not even been formally recognised let alone compensated.[5]
