The latest purchase from J&J also appears to reflect increased confidence in the company’s vaccine.

Johnson & Johnson also announced encouraging data last week for its single-dose COVID-19 vaccine. The company reported that the vaccine generated strong neutralizing antibody levels against the delta variant and other prevalent coronavirus variants. It also said that the vaccine has provided a durable immune response through at least eight months.

The potential protection against the delta variant was especially good news. J&J stated that its vaccine produced neutralizing antibody levels against this variant that were even higher than those found for the beta variant first identified in South Africa. Chief scientific officer Paul Stoffels said: “This adds to the robust body of clinical data supporting our single-shot vaccine’s ability to protect against multiple variants of concern.”

It should be noted, though, that J&J’s data was from blood samples obtained from only eight participants in its phase 3 clinical study and has not yet been peer-reviewed. The results showing that its vaccine provided immune response through at least eight months came from a phase 1/2a clinical study with 20 participants. This data also hasn’t yet been peer-reviewed.

Even with these caveats, Johnson & Johnson’s latest data are certainly positive. The company’s COVID-19 vaccine could very well be proven to be effective against the delta variant and other variants of concern with long-lasting immunity.

The covid vaccine my whole family chose was J and J. Except for my 16 year old daughter—she’s taking a wait and see approach

I held out for the J&J vaccine. I got it because my sister, with whom I live, has multiple vulnerability factors, and she is terrified. No, she is not obese and does not have diabetes.

Now my nephew has tested positive and likely my BIL also has it. Neither of them was vaccinated.

I lived with someone with COVID and never got it. A month after she recovered I got the JJ with no I’ll affects

If they screwed up on the first version, as they have so frequently in the past on their products, WHY on God’s green earth would I want to or should I trust them now about this experimental medical treatment?

But the mRNA vaccines are better at preventing symptomatic disease. In my case, family members need to fly internationally to meet with family and friends. Having symptoms and fever would cause having to reschedule travel dates. Reentry into the US requires having a negative PCR or antibody test within 3 days of travel even if you are vaccinated. It’s much less hassle to have two doses of an mRNA vaccine than a single dose of the J&J vaccine and have to worry about having to reschedule travel.

I got the J&J shot on May 3rd. I have been coughing since May 5th. Some days are worse than others.
