The Nobel laureates behind mRNA COVID vaccines

More than one million people died just in the U.S. as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic that broke out in 2020. But a scientific miracle - a vaccine released later that same year - saved countless lives. Last year Katalin Karikó and Drew Weissman, the two scientists whose research in messenger RNA (or mRNA) and immunology enabled the development of the Pfizer and Moderna COVID vaccines, were named Nobel Prize-winners. "Sunday Morning" contributor Kelefa Sanneh talks with Weissman and Karikó about their partnership, and the unusual trajectories of their lives that led to a breakthrough that may reshape vaccine treatment for a host of diseases.

Congratulations on your true endeavors. I'm old enough to remember at a very early age the polio sugar cube to help fight the disease. At that time..we had no fear of an attempt in eradicating the polio virus, no politics involved.

[@jercasgav]

Totally different in regards to how an mRNA vaccine's mode of action works, and possible side effects compared to a typical vaccine that either has chopped up, dead virus/bacteria, or has a weakened/attenuated germ. Lipoproteins in the mRNA vaccine that go into cells and permeate various organ systems instead of staying in the injected muscle makes it different as well. Basically you are comparing apples to beef...it is a whole different animal, not even a different type of fruit.

[@thenitenurse22]

We should celebrate scientists like this who actually make real contributions to mankind rather than sports heroes and celebrities.

[@margaritoamargo6347]

Makes me sad that these individuals worked extremely hard to save lives and create a vaccine only to have a political party and its millions of voters lie in countless ways to ruin confidence in a life saving drug. So many more lives could have been saved if this was not turned into a political issue. The disinformation has been getting so bad that even more people are starting to doubt the usefulness of vaccines in general. Do we really want to see large outbreaks of measles, mumps, rubella, polio, smallpox or any of the other diseases that were mostly eradicated by high vaccinations rates in the past? Just so an orange haired man can stay in power and question anything and anyone who disagrees with him.

My magic bullet comment was more about the development of mRNA vaccines in general. The potential for vaccines to fight intractable diseases like AIDS and malaria is a modern scientific miracle, and I’m grateful for folks like Drs. Karikó and Weissman, who have dedicated their lives to researching such treatments. BTW, you might enjoy looking up the origin of the term “magic bullet.” It’s fascinating.

No, but it did probably keep them out of the ER and off a ventilator. @@nochepatada

@@LLH7202 oddly enough the polio vaccine kept people from getting sick. Not just staying out the the hospital. Same goes for measles, mumps, and rubella

Yup, such a hyped up, nothing virus. Trust the science lmao

​@@lynnyhenQuoting famous people in the past doesn't cover for the shutdown damage done to society over a 99 percent recoverable virus - random guy who uses logic.

Quote famous writers from the past who never saw health scares as wealth transfers. Good move.

They don't understand the controversy of mandates? LOL

[@melissabruhn1429]

They are correct. Decades of anti-vaccination/science now has a rise of measles outbreaks in US.

[@kelleyspears1218]

No, they said they don’t understand why people are anti vaccine. Now take a look at all the previous diseases that we have vaccines for that are making a comeback because people are conspiracy theorists and won’t take them. I don’t know, I’m sure Trump will make some ridiculous comment and his supporters will become sick and hopefully not vote 💀

[@jnyfumare]

@@melissabruhn1429 people upset by mandates weren't in defiance of a measles vaccination. It was this guinea pig vaccine.

You clearly; don't understand science and public health.

[@DupageDragonsFan94]

Jane Pauley almost had me at the beginning. For a second, I thought she was hinting at honoring the forgotten tens of thousands of healthcare workers that lost their jobs due to refusing a mandatory shot. But alas... might as well continue ignoring them for the sake of pretending they don't exist. Journalism with a higher purpose.

[@dorothybobo5157]

Most people don’t honor idiocracy.

[@user-zz7dz7cc3f]

Those medical workers had no problems with getting a seasonal flu shot but balked at a Covid vaccine. It makes no sense other than the typical Republican “you can’t tell me what to do” idiocy.

[@SFSteph23]

Why should we honor people who put the rest of us at risk?

[@kelleyspears1218]

Damn, one would think people in the healthcare field would have been on board with getting a vaccine for themselves and the people they care for. But apparently idiocy has infiltrated that field as well.

[@DupageDragonsFan94]

​@@SFSteph23​How did they put you at risk? Or do you mean the people who created the virus or funded its creation in the first place?

[@SavingAmericans]

Doctors don’t have jobs without sick patients. Once you comprehend that, you start to question everything. It was never about health.

[@bobafettucine]

Exactly right. And farmers are making people hungry too. Think about it.

[@SavingAmericans]

@@bobafettucine I know exactly what their plans are. Once I started talking about overpopulation it got taken down though.

[@bobafettucine]

​@@SavingAmericansI heard that people have literally died of starvation. When are we going to seriously take on the farmers?

[@SavingAmericans]

@@bobafettucine You would have to see every farmer involved as well as the victims’ families and/or friends and take them to court to protest.

[@SavingAmericans]

@@bobafettucine I would do it if I had enough supporters to back me up, but at the same time, I am losing my mind enough as it is trying to tell the truth about the Covid vaccines. Natural supplements and/or a plant based diet are safer.

No thanks to Trump for getting this available quick with project wharp speed?

[@kelleyspears1218]

Absolutely NOT. He was pretty anti vax. Telling people to inject bleach and take horse dewormer is the opposite of keeping people healthy.

[@sleeplessvirus]

The most important factor in scheduling its release was to ensure it in no way benefited Trump. The last thing anyone wanted was to give him a boost before the election.

[@kelleyspears1218]

Trump, the guy that said just drink bleach, who said it would go away in a month and to just take horse dewormer? That guy? Yeah, he actually is the reason so many died.
