Have we ever had mRNA vaccines?

no, but nothing about the mechanism of mRNA vaccines suggests they'd be an exception in that regard, since mRNA is very short-lived and thus if you'd get long-term effects, you'd have them from other delivery methods too.

As Vinay Prasad would say, It is often our mechanistic understanding that misaligns with study results. All we can do is test.
