Video Explaining how Covid Vaccine Works is Winning Hearts
Apr 08, 2021
A huge Covid-19 vaccination drive is going on around the world, but people are still confused about how it works or why two shots are required. So, one comedian came forward to simplify the science behind it using a relatable analogy, and it’s winning the internet. Check out the video below:
In the TikTok video that is going viral, he used a simple skit featuring forks to show how the vaccines made by Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna work.

In case you don’t know mRNA vaccines teach our cells how to make a protein, or even just a piece of a protein, that triggers an immune response. That immune response, which produces antibodies, protects us from getting infected if the real virus enters our bodies, CDC explains.
Earlier, he had put out another video to explain how vaccines work, showing how the newly formed antibodies identify and then attack the ‘fork hands’ of the novel coronavirus.
