I have seen some Dr on twitter say that had Moderna or Pfizer done their trials at the height of infection like J&J their efficacy would be lower. A lot of Dr believe while still very effective the 90% plus numbers are likely not accurate.


From what I'm reading, Moderna and Pfizer did their trials before the new South African and Brazil variants. Those are proving to be more evasive of the vaccine. I would think Moderna and Pfizer are more likely in the range of J&J now. Those are still pretty good numbers considering the flu shot is usually 40-60% effective.

I haven't heard that at all. In fact I have read the opposite. No difference in effectiveness.
