In this video, I discuss the state of mRNA and RNA vaccines. I compare them to traditional DNA vaccines. We also go over RNA vaccines being used in Coronavirus Vaccine Trials, with companies such as Moderna. The video discusses how mRNA and RNA vaccines work, and if they are more effective than other vaccines. The paper we reviewed was "Amplifying RNA Vaccine Development" by Fuller & Berglund (2020) recommended to me by Dr. Surbhi Jain.
