The COVID 19 vaccine, how does it work?

The main idea of mRNA vaccines is that the vaccine is a mRNA itself, it tricks our bodies to produce part of a virus. This triggers our immune response. All that's needed is a part of the virus's DNA or RNA, packaged into the vaccine mRNA.

The COVID 19 vaccine for Australians is mRNA vaccine as well. Four candidates are:
Pfizer / BioNTech
Novavax
AstraZeneca / Oxford University
COVAX Facility
