This lecture explains the importance of organic chemistry in the development of RNA vaccines for COVID-19, detailing the structure of RNA vaccines, the role of spike proteins, the differences between mRNA and saRNA, the benefits and challenges of RNA vaccines, the safety considerations, the mechanism of vaccine production, and the storage and transport requirements. It also covers the concept of self-amplifying ribonucleic acid (saRNA) and its advantages over mRNA vaccines.
