AUGUST 1, 2023
1 August was first chosen as World RNA Day in 2018 as a play on AUG (adenine, uracil and guanine), a triple sequence of RNA (called a codon) that initiates protein synthesis by the cell. Since then, it has been observed to publicise the importance of this molecule in the generation of proteins in the body.

The Flu versus COVID-19: Virology and Vaccines SARS-CoV-2 versus Influenza Virology Viruses contain genetic material that can either be RNA or DNA. Both influenza and SARS-CoV-2 have RNA as their genetic material. An RNA genome enables the genetic material to mutate more rapidly.

SARS-CoV-2 is characterized by an outer surface speckled with spike proteins, giving it a crown-like appearance, hence the name “corona,” which is the Latin word for crown. The spike protein is critical for binding to ACE2 receptors on host cells — this interaction mediates the entry of the virus into cells. Vaccine Considerations.
