Moderna is coming! What is it again? - a podcast by ABC News

A new vaccine will be arriving next week in Australia, to help bolster vaccine rates and protect Australians from COVID-19.

The Moderna vaccine, known by its brand name Spikevax or by its scientific name mRNA-1273, is the country's third vaccine to be administered to the public.

The Federal Government yesterday announced additional supplies of Moderna, in addition to the ten million doses already coming later this year.
