That seems to be a rather low effectiveness. Isn't the double shot method in the 80% range effectiveness after the 2nd dosage?

A post here yesterday linked to the explanation that the J&J was tested in South America where there was a more aggressive strain of the virus. The article said the effectiveness of the J&J is being rated higher now. (I forgot exactly what percentage so I won’t put down a number).

The moderna and Pfizer are 95% 14 days after the second injection and recent literature shows 92% at preventing disease and transmission.

From the excerpted article-The Johnson & Johnson vaccine, which operates on an adenovirus vector platform and does not require ultra-cold storage, was found to be 66% effective in reducing moderate to severe coronavirus and 85% effective against the most serious illness.

I think it's claimed to be 70-80% effective after the FIRST dose. 95% after the second.
