 ===== Genetic Vaccines ===== ===== Genetic Vaccines =====
 [[Genetic vaccine]]s, including [[mRNA vaccine]]s, contain material from the virus that causes COVID-19 that gives our cells instructions for how to make a harmless protein that is unique to the virus. After our cells make copies of the protein, they destroy the genetic material from the vaccine. Our bodies recognize that the protein should not be there and build T-lymphocytes and B-lymphocytes that will remember how to fight the virus that causes COVID-19 if we are infected in the future. [[Genetic vaccine]]s, including [[mRNA vaccine]]s, contain material from the virus that causes COVID-19 that gives our cells instructions for how to make a harmless protein that is unique to the virus.
