2024 COVID-19 vaccine vial Spikevax and syringes. The vaccine used to prevent COVID-19 caused by SARS-CoV-2. The active substance in the vaccine is ribonucleic acid (RNA) encoding the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein. When injected, the vaccine stimulates the body's immune system, causing the body to produce antibodies against the spike proteins. This means that the body is primed to attack the viruses should they be encountered after vaccination, preventing disease.
