Oh, that would be good news because that means Johnson & Johnson, which is a heavyweight like Pfizer when it comes to production.

Thank god, because I was on track to get mine next month but my state pushed it to 70+ year old (which is 110% fine by me) so hopefully this puts me at March/April bracket at work.

I just got moderna one today because I had a chance, a tad bit worried about being able to successfully get the 2nd dose but we'll see what happens.

I hope JnJ are able to get approval and get it out for everyone quickly and efficiently.

Yeah, pending emergency approval they were saying to expect ~100 million doses (which in this case means 100 million vaccinated people) through April.

This would speed things up significantly. Tho I'd bet people would prefer to have this one over the other ones, for the convenience of having just one vaccination dose.

This and the astrazeneca vaccine are going to be key in getting as many people shots as possible

This can be a gamechanger in achieving herd immunity. Here's hoping it's approved as soon as possible.

I'll take all the good news I can get. I'm a first responder, and still having a really hard time getting a vaccine.

Hopefully their trials come back with clearer (and better) results than the AstraZeneca trials.

Thank Christ. I want to watch TopGun Maverick on the big screen! Oh and less people dying and our medical workers getting relief.

I debated buying J&J stock looking at Moderna/Pfizer gains post announcement and it looks ... like a reasonable buy?

Anyone have thoughts?

Shouldn't you be near the front of the line?

At first, they were only taking responders either by department or via sponsorship from employers, and my employer sucks so I'm on my own. I finally got through to the health department a few days ago and they're out until mid next week. It's a nightmare just to try and talk to someone.

It's an adenovirus vector like Oxford/AZ. Basically those types use a harmless virus humans haven't been exposed to that acts as a trojan horse to train our immune system to what we really want it to fight (the spike protein).

mhmm ok I'll have to talk to her immunological team. My wife has some challenging comorbidities that make certain types of vaccines either useless or rather harmful

I'm really hoping the results come back strongly. It really speed up the rollout of things over the coming months.

I'm (hopefully) getting one next month but that's amazing news
