2005 | Vaccine development | The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) grants approval for the first mRNA-based vaccine, specifically for rabies in animals. This milestone demonstrates the potential of mRNA technology in vaccine development. The approval marks a significant advancement, showcasing mRNA's ability to generate an immune response by instructing cells to produce proteins that are essential for fighting the virus. This early success paves the way for subsequent development of mRNA vaccines for humans, including those for COVID-19, and highlights the versatility and promise of mRNA technology in combating infectious diseases. | United States |
