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

Could you link some of what you're reading, would like to check it out.

I just finished this thread on Twitter, which I think is pretty good info LINK

Granted, there could be some of his opinion thrown in there, but I've found him to be a pretty good source on this. Overall, I think things are still very optimistic on the vaccine front.

I think that effectiveness was based off laboratory settings. I think the idea is that the "in the wild" effectiveness for Pifzer and Moderna is actually lower (still great) and so effectiveness against variants would just be at that same level.
