Details
The world recently witnessed the most rapid vaccine production ever, achieving another milestone in medical science. In response to the novel SARS-CoV-2 virus and the CoVID-19 pandemic, a messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) vaccine was developed and administered to billions worldwide in less than a year. Prior vaccine production took five to ten years!
Just as the wheel was invented long before the automobile, mRNA vaccines were built upon much previous scientific knowledge, dating back to the days of Gregor Mendel and possibly before.
This mRNA kit is designed to aid in the teaching of how mRNA vaccines provide immunity against harmful viruses. A colorful animated slide show illustrates virus structure, viral entry into body cells and the immune response. A summary of how mRNA vaccines are produced and why they provide lasting immunity without causing sickness follows.
Understanding that students learn best when information is presented orally, visually, and tactilely; teachers are provided with animated slides to project on a wall or screen. Plastic models representing cells and key structures allow students to tactilely simulate immune response to a virus. Student assessment is evaluated via activities utilizing kit models and follow-up questions.
The kit contains no consumables and can be shared among teachers. The durability of the plastic models will provide for years of use.
- Use hands-on models to investigate how the immune system reacts to vaccines
- Learn about mRNA vaccines, viruses and the human immune system
- Includes 35 custom plastic models

What Educators are Saying About Geyer
Justin has been nothing but helpful and professional in my requests for these Boeing Defense requirements. He has been able to answer my questions and concerns quickly, and helped in securing the order that I may have made with another supplier had be not been the value-add that he is to your company. I hope his merit raise this FY was "exceeds expectations".
Jesse C...I contacted Geyer via email. I had an email back within minutes!.. A back and forth via email sometimes takes days with other companies and customer service doesn’t happen like this very often. When it does, it’s much appreciated. Brett at Geyer was very polite and accommodating!
John C.The customer service rep went as far as to reach out to the manufacturer of a product to answer my question, and then provided pictures. She really went above and beyond and answered the question thoroughly and gave me exactly the information I was looking for. This entire process was also extremely fast.
Robert C.I called to ask how to submit a Tax Exempt Certificate for my library and spoke to a real person, no automation or asking me to press a number. He was friendly, helpful and got our Tax Exempt status established immediately.
Mischelle F....I don't think I've ever experienced that level of customer service before, and taking it into consideration along with the quality of their products, I would absolutely recommend Geyer to fellow teachers.
