Vaccines are used to protect against deadly viruses. Traditional vaccines have used inactive (dead) viruses to promote an immune response to fight the actual virus. Examples include, small pox, polio, measles, viral pneumonia.
For several decades researchers have been investigating using messenger RNA (mRNA) to develop vaccines. Instead of using an inactive virus, the vaccines use mRNA to provide the genetic code so your body develops a harmless protein used by the virus to enter cells. Your bodies immune system then identifies the protein as a foreign material that must be destroyed by creating anti-bodies. The antibodies provide protection against the actual virus.
As with traditional vaccines, there are many myths about the new mRNA vaccines developed against SARS-CoV-2 and Covid-19.
