Thanks to President Trump's fast-tracking the process for developing and approving vaccines in America, we currently have two anti-COVID vaccines available, one from Moderna and one from Pfizer. Both of these vaccines use mRNA to trigger the body's immune response by giving the body instructions to create certain proteins. Because mRNA is the instrument by which our bodies express their genetic instructions, many people have become concerned that the new vaccines will actually alter their body's DNA. That's not the case; they're just a shortcut to the body's usual response to a traditional vaccine.
