Have questions on how mRNA vaccines protect against #COVID19?

The mRNA in #COVID19 vaccines has information to teach your body how to fight the virus. The vaccine does not contain live virus, so it can’t give you COVID-19. It cannot change your DNA. More: https://bit.ly/3qAVLM0 
mRNA vaccines teach our cells how to make a protein that triggers an immune response to #COVID19 inside our bodies. The immune response makes antibodies that protect us from getting infected if the real virus enters our bodies. More: https://bit.ly/3qAVLM0 .
If you are exposed to the real #COVID19 virus after being vaccinated, your body recognizes these proteins and tells your immune system to fight the virus. Learn more: https://bit.ly/3qAVLM0 .
