k Moderna covid19 vaccine Moderna covid19 vaccine. The vaccine consists of strands of mRNA messenger ribonucleic acid encased in lipid nanoparticles. The mRNA codes for a mutated version of the viral spike protein found on the surface of the SARSCoV2 coronavirus that causes covid19. When injected into the body the mRNA is taken up by the bodys cells, which manufacture copies of the protein. The proteins stimulate an immune response, causing the body to produce antibodies against the spike protein. This means that the body is primed to attack the virus should it be encountered after vaccination, preventing disease., Photo by DR P. MARAZZISCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY Stock Photo - Afloimages
