New data from Moderna Inc's (MRNA.O) large COVID-19 vaccine trial shows that the protection it offers declines over time, supporting the case for booster doses, the company said in a news release on Wednesday.
Several recent studies have suggested that its vaccine may have an edge over a similar shot from Pfizer Inc (PFE.N) and German partner BioNTech SE in terms of maintaining efficacy over time.
Experts said the difference is likely due to Moderna's higher dose of messenger RNA (mRNA) and the slightly longer interval between the first and second shots.
Both vaccines proved to be exceedingly effective at preventing illness in their large Phase III studies.
The analysis released on Wednesday, however, showed a chink in the Moderna shot's armor over time, with higher rates of infection among people vaccinated roughly 13 months ago compared with those vaccinated roughly eight months ago. The study has yet to undergo peer review.
Moderna on Sept. 1 submitted its application to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration seeking authorization for a booster shot. read more
Briefing documents from the FDA's analysis of Pfizer's booster application, released earlier on Wednesday, suggest that a key issue the agency will consider is whether vaccine protection is waning. Previous data on Moderna's shot had shown lasting protection, making the case for boosters more challenging.
In the new analysis, Moderna compared the vaccine's performance in more than 14,000 volunteers vaccinated between July and October of 2020 to some 11,000 volunteers originally in the placebo group who were offered the shot between December 2020 and March 2022 following its U.S. emergency use authorization.

They always manage to slip in the big lie that the "vaccines" prevent illness.
That’s convenient.
“we haven’t been able to kill enough of you useless eaters off yet...but wait until this one”
Translation: We at Moderna put out such a crappy “vaccine” that we need the gubment money to keep rolling in to produce future crappy “vaccines”. You know, for safety.
Bet my supply of horse de-wormer lasts longer.
Who didn’t see this coming ping.
Can you imagine any other product developed, manufactured, shipped and marketed with such a failure rate? They would be forced to pull their products amid recalls and then sued.
But this market is exempt when it comes to population control. How convenient to have immunity from liability.
Maybe it just no worky too good.
Which supplies a higher protection rate for immunity,
A. The vaccine drug
Or
B. The manufacturers immunity from liability?
Uh, it makes the case to develop a much bettedr vaccine and stop the production and use of what we currently have on hand.
A “booster” shot of rat poison.
The Divine Wrath of Almighty God cannot come for these murderers and liars soon enough.
Horse paste rather than horse shit.
And while they freak out over the fact that they claim nobody knows how long natural immunity lasts, they are very lackadaisical about vax immunity.
By 2023:
“Come and get your monthly booster shot against COVID-19. You may visit any approved pharmacy or Community Vaccination Center without an appointment. Make sure your Vaccine card is stamped before you leave. See you next month! Stay safe, continue to wear your mask at all times, and remember, WE ARE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER!”
bttt
Moderna “96% effective against preventing severe disease, 87% effective against preventing Covid disease”
Got my 3rd shot last week, no prob. Good to go

Stick a needle in your arm, you fool you! ...Lynyrd Skynyrd
