Moderna vaccine

mRNA coronavirus immunization

The Moderna vaccine is a COVID-19 vaccine developed by the American biotechnology company Moderna, first authorized for emergency use in December 2020.

It uses messenger RNA (mRNA) technology to instruct cells to produce a protein that triggers an immune response.

I got my Moderna vaccine at the pharmacy.

Often called simply Moderna: Did you get Pfizer or Moderna?
