What is the difference between Johnson & Johnson’s Pfizer and Moderna lanes?

Last Saturday, the United States added to its arsenal against the COVID-19 a third-party armed force, under the auspices of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA, by its seal in English), granting the authorization of emergency use to a vacancy of Johnson & Johnson.

The company says that the company will send millions of doses to the principles of this week, and that Proportion to the United States 100 million of the final dose of June. Together with the 600 million doses of the first vacancies authorized in the country, manufactured by Pfizer-BioNTech and Modern, which will be integrated during the next few months, will be sufficient to cover all adult adults who need to be vaccinated.

The new vacancy notably differs from the ones used in the United States. Here are the differences:

A dose injection in two

The Johnson & Johnson vaccine requires a single dose, while the Pfizer-BioNTech and Modern vaccines are administered in both cases with different weekly doses.

How it works

The Johnson & Johnson vaccine uses a different method to prepare the body to combat COVID-19: a viral vector called Ad26. Viral vectors are common viruses that are genetically altered to cause disease, but can make the system immune to its defenses. The Pfizer-BioNTech and Modern vacancies are used by ARN to log in.

How well does it work

Johnson & Johnson’s vacancy is considered highly effective to prevent serious and death-related illness, as well as the Pfizer-BioNTech and Modern vehicles. It is also very effective in preventing the most life-threatening version, although only a few are present. It seems that it is very much against the highly contagious variant B.1.351, identified by the first time in South Africa, that it has had problems at least in the other candidate for vacancy.

Food and mane

The Johnson & Johnson vacuum cleaner does not have extreme temperatures as low as Pfizer-BioNTech. Can preserve safe form in a refrigerator normal for three months, much more than the vacerna of Moderna, which is lost in the head of a moon if it is not converged.

Secondary effects

Johnson & Johnson’s vacancy appears less thought that the vacancies of Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna desencadenar the types of secondary effects that require vigilance after the injection, what can be done that are more adequately used in the vacancy centers, and in the vacancy process realizes that the patient is selling his car. It has been reported that the secondary effects tend to be sent to the mayor intensely after applying the second dose, as is not necessary with the Johnson & Johnson vacancy.
