Moderna says its vaccine is 93% effective against symptomatic illness after six months .A patient receives her first dose of the Moderna Covid-19 vaccine at a pop up vaccine clinic at the Jewish Community Center, April 16, 2021, in Staten Island, New York.
Moderna said its booster candidates also demonstrate robust antibody responses to variants of concern, including delta. Moderna President Dr. Stephen Hoge told"Good Morning America" Thursday that the Moderna vaccine offers protection from delta right after receiving it, but it's not known yet if that'll hold up through the winter. He called winter"the biggest test of that vaccine which is why we need to be vigilant and careful.
He also noted that Moderna's goal is to be vaccinating kids under 12 by the end of the year. Moderna isn’t authorized for kids ages 12 to 17 yet, but Hoge hopes authorization could come “any day.”
