mRNA vaccines are new technology. CEPI (Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations) was in the past investing money in the technology because of a hope of it being faster. Existing mRNA vaccines did pass phase 1 trials but there’s no mRNA vaccine yet that’s passed a phase 3 trial.
It’s not clear how it affects that actual testing time. Actual testing time will depend a lot on how the actual effects in vivo will be.
