The Moderna COVID-19 Vaccine contains messenger RNA (mRNA), which is genetic material. After a person receives this vaccine, their body produces copies of the spike protein, which does not cause disease, but triggers the immune system to learn to react defensively, producing an immune response against SARS-CoV-2.
