Coronavirus RNA Vaccines

Coronavirus RNA Vaccines


Story at a glance

The Coronavirus vaccine may be the first genetically engineered messenger RNA vaccine to be fast tracked to licensure

The FDA has not yet licensed messenger RNA vaccines that use part of the RNA of a virus to manipulate the body’s immune system into stimulating a potent immune response

There likely will be lots of questions about whether the fast-tracked coronavirus vaccine was studied long enough to adequately demonstrate safety

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) may recommend that all Americans get the newly licensed coronavirus vaccine

The government has a National Vaccine Plan designed to make sure you, your child and everyone in America gets every dose of every vaccine that government officials recommend now and in the future



If this is no longer online, you'll know why.
