it seems like the current logic is to mix vaccines to create the most robust vaccine immune response, but depending on availability that may be easier said than done.
- mc32 5y agoThe J&J vaccine in the US was evaluated at 67% efficacy, vs ~95% for the mRNA counterparts. Are those people then supposed to take the mRNA vaccines in addition, if not, why are people with natural immunity required to get an additional vaccine (among them J&J)?
- shlant 5y agoit seems like J&J has high efficacy against serious outcomes for delta (71% effective against hospitalization and 95% effective against death[1]) so it may be pretty comparable to the main alternatives. However, for options like Sinovac it may be a different story.
