Dear Rine C. Reuben,

Currently (February 2021), ongoing vaccination programs are using several vaccines from several pharmaceutical companies on a global scale. Vaccines differ in their level of effectiveness, and some also differ in production technology, transport logistics and application. Over the next few months, there are likely to be several more vaccines coming from other pharmaceutical companies. Many countries previously experienced the 1st and 2nd waves of the pandemic, and now the 3rd wave of the pandemic is developing, caused by new, more infectious by 70-80%. variants of the Coronavirus. At the moment, the results of research that could clearly and objectively decide whether the currently used vaccines will also be highly effective against the new variants of the SARS-CoV-2 (Covid-19) Coronavirus, which currently generate the 3rd wave of the pandemic and which will be created in the next months and years.

Regards, Have a nice day, Stay healthy! Best wishes,
