The Food and Drug Administration (FDA)’s staff endorsed Johnson & Johnson (J&J)’s Covid-19 vaccine for emergency use as the jab showed positive results in moderate and severe cases.
J&J’s vaccine showed 86% efficacy against severe forms of Covid-19 in the United States, and 82% against severe variants in South Africa.
FDA’s Vaccines and Related Biological Products Advisory Committee will meet on Friday to review J&J’s request for emergency use of its vaccine.
More importantly, J&J’s vaccine requires only one dose, making logistics much easier as well as more convenient for the patients.
