Authorized and Recommended Vaccines
As Covid-19 vaccines are authorized and recommended for use in US by the Center for Disease Control two vaccines are available, Moderna and Pfizer-BioNTech. A third vaccine made by Johnson & Johnson is in late-stage clinical trials.
There is still some confusion of what to expect after vaccination, as well as ingredients, safety, and effectiveness.
Vaccines in Phase 3 Clinical Trials
The CDC says that as of December 2020, large-scale (Phase 3) clinical trials are planned for three COVID-19 vaccines in the United States:
- AstraZeneca’s COVID-19 vaccine
- Janssen’s COVID-19 vaccine
- Novavax’s COVID-19 vaccine
#COVID19 vaccines are safe and effective. Millions of people in the United States have received COVID-19 vaccines, and these vaccines have undergone the most intensive safety monitoring in U.S. history. More on COVID-19 vaccine safety: https://bit.ly/3pE2Go7.
