There are multiple methods - traditional and experimental - for making vaccines, but Moderna and Pfizer

use an experimental approach based on something called mRNA

(or Messenger RiboNucleic Acid).

The terminology is a mouthful, but it describes a simpler, swifter approach to vaccine production.

And it was boosted over the clinical finish line by the pandemic.

Vaccination is fundamentally based on "showing" your immune system the disease-causing agent,

so it can form a biological memory and be primed to fight it.

For many existing virus vaccines :

this has meant producing versions or pieces of the virus itself -

often snippets of viral protein stripped of their disease-causing ability.

These are grown inside chicken eggs, packaged up and injected.

"To grow enough of those things can take a very long time - sometimes years,"

explains Prof Robert Langer, one of the founders of Moderna

and a professor of chemical engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT)

"With mRNA - you use the body as a factory to make that protein.

So rather than have a giant factory with all these eggs to grow your proteins

you just make the mRNA, give it to the patient and the patient does everything else."

Messenger RNA is a short sequence of coded genetic instructions for the protein you want a cell to make.
