J&J Vaccine looks better than Pfizer or Moderna

Variants were spreading during testing
“When it came time for the Janssen vaccine trial, the background COVID incidence was higher,” said Dr. Fryhofer. “There were more variants circulating, including the variants of concern that can increase transmissibility and disease severity.”

“When the Janssen vaccine was tested, it was at the height of the pandemic,” she said. “The variants of concern were out there, so the test for the Janssen vaccine was harder—”

With J&J's shot, immune protection will become robust within a month, without having to go back in for a second booster.

Fortunately, this new vaccine works particularly well in the under-60 group too. In J&J's trial, people under the age of 60 were well protected from serious infections: Only 58 out of more than 8,200 who were fully vaccinated got moderate to severe illness after their shot had time to take effect. In the similarly sized control group, 180 got moderate to severe COVID-19 infections.

J&J's shot is also the only one that the FDA has reviewed, so far, that provides evidence that it helps stop people from spreading the virus asymptomatically. That is particularly useful for young people, as well as essential workers and people experiencing homelessness who may not be able to social distance, and already face more barriers getting access to vaccine or testing sites.
 
J&J vaccine is also much much cheaper in cost and it has a much longer shelf life with less refrigeration. In addition, folks are more likely to not bypass the second shot because there isn't one.

I had covid before a vaccine was available. Since then I’ve had my two doses of the Astra vaccine. If a booster is required in the next few months I’ll get that asap. If a booster is required next year I’ll get that too. If a booster is required annually, I’ll get it too.
