CNN and J&J CEO trump a County Health Dept, one infectious disease Dr, and NBC Medical Correspondent.
Then, of course, there's all the data coming out the that the RNA vaccines are doing fantastic against variants.
At the end of the day, you should get something......anyone will do. So, my original comment was solely to state that you "might" have to get a 2nd booster injection.
You don't know how scientific studies work. You can't compare the vaccines because the environments and circumstances in which they were studied were entirely different.
A. The Pfizer and Moderna vaccines had the majority of their trials during MUCH lower case # periods of time. JNJ during the peak of the surge.
B. JNJ had their vaccine in parts of the world where more contagious variants were circulating. The did significant studies in brazil and south africa. Moderna and Pfizer were not studied in South Africa or Brazil.
Basically, you're comparing the three point shooting of a college player to a nba player. They're shooting from different lines in different arenas against different defenses.
Could Pfizer and moderna be more effective? Sure. Are they, probably.
But is it as significant as you imply. Absolutely not.
JNJ was 100% effective against hospitalization and death. That included the new variants.
