Johnson and Johnson is about to get a vaccine approved for general use and that brings the number of available shots to three, but there are some differences that you should note!
Both Pfizer and Moderna have an efficacy rate of about 95% but Moderna only requires moderate refrigeration while Pfizer needs special cold boxes to keep the vaccine at -90 C.
The Johnson and Johnson vaccine meanwhile, only needs regular refrigeration..., and can do the job with ONE-SHOT! (The only problem is that the efficacy rate is around 75%. More on this)
All of the vaccines prevent people from getting the severe version of COVID and in urban centers both Pfizer and Moderna would be the "shot-of-choice" but out in the country and over in third world countries the Johnson and Johnson vaccine is the way to go since it only requires the one-shot! Plus..., it helps bring the level of "herd immunity" up considerably which makes up for the slightly less effective vaccine!.
SO!
Pfizer and Moderna for the city folk!
Johnson and Johnson for the country folks!
Simple eh?
