The messenger RNA (mRNA) vaccines encode a form of the spike (S) protein of SARS-CoV-2 virus. The vaccine teaches the cells to make a piece of the spike protein, which triggers an immune response to help prevent illness if later exposed to the virus.

The first participant has been dosed in a Phase 1 trial evaluating the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of a nucleoside-modified RNA (modRNA)-based combination vaccine approach. The influenza virus is subject to constant mutations to evade the host immune response, causing a seasonal variation in circulating strains.
