Sometimes it may be subsidized somewhat, sure, but the vast majority of it is coming out of pocket for these companies.

You seem awfully sure about that. What are you basing it on? MRNA research alone was massively funded with taxpayer money. Coding for new proteins is almost trivial compared to what went into developing the technology.
