COVID-19: What Is MRNA Vaccine And How Does It Work? Watch Explainer Video
mRNA vaccines perform a crucial task in the bodies of the receiver, that is to instruct the cells to target the ‘spike protein’, researchers at Harvard explain.
Pfizer/BioNTech and Moderna have developed an entirely new type of vaccine based on mRNA [Messenger RNA vaccines] to combat the coronavirus. A UK-based university, with the help of a two-minute-long video, has explained how the mRNA vaccine targets the immune system to eliminate COVID-19. The coronavirus vaccines, when injected in the upper arm sends the mRNA into the bloodstream. The virus makes copies of itself by entering into the healthy host cells using protein spike structures that are made out of RNA and DNA. The mRNA from the vaccine contains the synthetic version of the RNA that tricks the immune system that the virus is present, thereby accelerating the anti-body-making process.
We’re better off with mRNA vaccines
The technology that is helping us combat COVID-19 is also poised to help us tackle tough infectious and non-infectious diseases. Immunologist Sarah Fortune explains how these vaccines work, and how the mRNA platform could transform the prevention and treatment of deadly diseases.
In this episode of “Better Off,” Harvard Chan School immunologist Sarah Fortune takes on common misconceptions about COVID-19 vaccines, and discusses the ways that mRNA technology could be used to create vaccines for diseases like TB and cancer.
