That was mostly due to advances in mRNA technology, no? Moderna was able to design the vaccine in days mostly because of it's RNA tech, not because it was prepared for a coronavirus pandemic.

Definitely mRNA advancements played a huge role, but it certainly sounds like coronavirus research played its part.
