💡BEST. VIDEO. ALL. YEAR. Please share with friends how the mRNA vaccine works to fight the coronavirus.

📌NOTA BENE—The mRNA never interacts with your DNA 🧬. #vaccinate

(Special thanks to the Vaccine Makers Project @vaccinemakers of @ChildrensPhila). #COVID19

2) This Family Guy video explainer is more rudimentary but also very effective vaccine explainer. Thx @SethMacFarlane

3) The other BEST mRNA vaccine explainer video is this amazing epic one by @ScientistSwanda. Really good technical details that’s easy to understand.

4) Here is @ScientistSwanda’s followup explainer on the Oxford/AstraZeneca’s adenovirus vaccine approach. Slightly different from mRNA but similar “make spike protein” general approach.

5) Captioned text of vaccine explainer.

Again, beautiful video by @vaccinemakers of Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia @ChildrensPhila.

6) Humor sometimes works better—

Hilarious explainer how the mRNA #CovidVaccine works.

📌NOTA BENE—The mRNA disintegrating scene is also very key detail - it degrades very quickly. #COVID19

7) as of this week, 40% of the world has now been 2-dose #vaccinated. We have a long ways to go. Billions more to go. #CovidIsNotOver

HT @Antonio_Caramia

8) For those Star Wars inclined for understanding anything…. We got a Star Wars vaccine analogy for you.

9) For those who want to share on other platforms:

10) These vaccine explainer videos deserve a Peabody Award or a Pulitzer. This one is elegant and simple too. And language barrier free. #vaccinate

11) For those hearing impaired… here is Dr @ScientistSwanda’s mRNA vaccine video captioned in subtitles.

12) Please #GetVaccinated - there’s been too many white flags 🏳 already. I didn’t think anyone would ever find my flag message in a sea of 700k+, but someone did. May our children’s generation someday forgive us. #vaccinate

13) 📌 NOTA BENE — vaccines can often offer much stronger protection against a breakthrough than a prior infection’s protection against reinfection. Plus you avoid the initial risk of dying, hospitalization, and #LongCovid. See thread 🧵 below 👇
