Johnson & Johnson is a traditional “deactivated virus” vaccine.
- raphlinus 5y agoNo, J&J (also known as Janssen) is an adenovirus vector vaccine, as are Sputnik V and AstraZeneca. The main inactivated virus vaccines are Chinese CoronaVac and Indian Covaxin (VLA2001 is in trials also). The Novavax is a protein subunit vaccine, which is also more traditional vaccine technology than mRNA or even adenovirus vector.
