Novavax COVID-19 vaccine looks to be safer and just as effective as existing mRNA vaccines

I hope they make this available here soon as it would be my preferred option with my work now requiring a vaccine.

Supposedly also 90% effective against the variants, something the mRNA vaccines haven't been able to claim.

Results from a Phase 3 clinical trial enrolling 29,960 adult volunteers in the United States and Mexico show that the investigational vaccine known as NVX-CoV2373 demonstrated 90.4% efficacy in preventing symptomatic COVID-19 disease. The candidate showed 100% protection against moderate and severe disease. In people at high risk of developing complications from COVID-19 (people 65 years or older and people under age 65 with certain comorbidities or with likely regular exposure to COVID-19), the vaccine showed 91.0% efficacy in preventing symptomatic COVID-19 disease.
Safety data indicate the investigational vaccine was generally well-tolerated. Mild-to-moderate injection site pain and tenderness were the most common local symptoms among participants, and fatigue, headache and muscle pain lasting less than two days were the most common systemic symptoms.

I hope the FDA gives full authorization to one of these vaccines before my work mandates vaccines. Or I hope I can prove to them I have antibodies as a substitute to vaccination.
