It's been known that that DNA containing the mRNA vaccines can be successfully delivered into the part of plant cells where it will replicate, the plant can produce enough mRNA to rival a traditional shot, and finally, determining the right dosage.This works using the plant chloroplasts -; small organs in plant cells that convert sunlight into energy the plant can use - the sunlight operated tiny factory. The chloroplasts can be made to express genes that aren't naturally part of the plant. There's already one Covid vaccine using plants. But note it's not an mRNA vaccine, but a bit different method. The Canadian company Medicago & GSK has developed a vaccine using a tobacco plant Nicotiana benthamiana. The plant is used to create virus-like particles (VLPs), which are non-infectious. Phase I and II trials have been successful and now in Phase III stage.This is administered as a two shot regime 21 days apart.</blockquote>
