The J&J vaccine also uses an adenovirus vector to deliver the spike protein DNA to some of your cells, so that they can then make the spike protein for your immune system to react against. The nice thing about J&J is convenience - one and done.I heard the J&J might be available to all adults soon. That one is similar to AZ right? Might go for that one if it becomes available to me. Or would I be better off waiting for mRNA ones?
As for which vaccine to get - get whatever is available to you. There is no head-to-head data to say that one vaccine is better than any other vaccine. And you can't compare across the trials, as they measured efficacy differently, had different monitoring schemes, and had different patient populations (particularly for the J&J trial, which was run later, when more variants were in the general population of the trial countries). At the end of the day, all the vaccines protected against death and severe covid.
