Our mission is to deliver the greatest possible impact to people through mRNA medicines.
About us
At Moderna, we believe messenger RNA, or mRNA, is the “software of life.” Every cell in the body uses mRNA to provide real-time instructions to make the proteins necessary to drive all aspects of biology, including in human health and disease. Given its essential role, we believe mRNA could be used to create a new category of medicines with significant potential to improve the lives of patients. We are pioneering a new class of medicines made of messenger RNA, or mRNA. The potential implications of using mRNA as a drug are significant and far-reaching and could meaningfully improve how medicines are discovered, developed and manufactured. To learn more, visit www.modernatx.com. This Moderna page is not the appropriate place to report adverse events (side-effects) for any products. If you are or someone you know is experiencing a side effect, please reach out to your healthcare professional. Moderna is continuously monitoring the safety of its products. We encourage you to report any side effects directly to us at 1‑866‑MODERNA (1‑866‑663‑3762).

📢 This week we sponsored a Washington Post Live event focusing on the public health challenge of #LongCOVID. This crucial conversation brought together policymakers, medical researchers, and patients to explore the causes, prevalence, and long-term impacts of this condition. Thank you to Dr. Ziyad Al-Aly, Dr. Linda Sprague Martinez, Jaime Seltzer, Chimére L. Sweeney, Dr. Ashwin Vasan, and Rachel Beale for their invaluable contributions and commitment to understanding and combatting Long COVID. Together, we can make a difference!

Long COVID presents a growing public health challenge worldwide, and is having a major impact on the productivity of health systems and the wider workforce - with severe cases potentially costing the economy $200 billion in lost annual wages in the US alone. Join leading policymakers, medical researchers and patient advocates tomorrow at 9:00 am ET for a live conversation about the causes, prevalence and long-term impacts of #LongCOVID ⬇ https://lnkd.in/eiRcjSXN

A large new study in The New England Journal of Medicine shows that among people in the U.S. infected during the first two years of the pandemic, the percentage of vaccinated individuals who developed #LongCOVID was significantly lower than that of unvaccinated individuals. This study provides some of the strongest evidence yet that #vaccines reduce the risk of developing Long COVID. Learn more: https://lnkd.in/d25Pdp-2

COVID-19 continues to cause a more significant burden than #influenza in the U.S. For both infectious diseases, activity, hospitalizations, and deaths tend to follow peaks during the traditional winter viral respiratory season, however, influenza typically drops below endemic levels at certain points, while #COVID19 is responsible for significant burden throughout the year.

Long COVID is a complex chronic condition caused by a COVID-19 infection, that can manifest as potentially hundreds of symptoms in many different body systems. Some health effects of #LongCOVID, such as chronic fatigue and cognitive impairment (sometimes referred to as brain fog), can affect a person’s ability to work or attend school for an extended period of time.
