As Bennett shared in an interview for The Washington Post, “We know this vaccine prevents 85 percent of the severe disease…It was 100 percent effective in preventing hospitalization and deaths, and that’s really what’s important.”
According to Bennett, those facts are really important and we shouldn’t neglect them. The Johnson & Johnson website has shared that their vaccine offers complete protection 28 days after the vaccination. Additionally, “There was a clear effect of the vaccine on COVID-19 cases requiring medical intervention (hospitalization, ICU admission, mechanical ventilation, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), with no reported cases among participants who had received the Janssen COVID-19 vaccine, 28 days post-vaccination.”
In fact, experts have responded to the public’s concerns regarding the efficacy of the Jenssen vaccine compared to the other two vaccines that already exist, adding that the gap between them could be misleading. Another fact worth taking into consideration is the fact that Pfizer and Moderna were tested long before the new COVID variants appeared, while Johnson & Johnson’s vaccine was also tested recently against strains as well, which contributed to a lower efficacy, experts explained.
Experts want you to know that there are a lot of benefits when we talk about the new Johnson & Johnson vaccine. Firstly, the fact that the vaccine only requires one dose makes it very convenient, easier to store, and faster to develop protection against the virus. This will also contribute to the vaccine rollout, making it easier for a lot of people to get immunized in a shorter period of time.
