#11553 — Pfizer's and Moderna's vaccines likely work for all existing coronavirus strains. Don't worry about mutations for now, scientists say

Hello,


Don't worry about mutated strains of the coronavirus, experts say — the leading vaccine candidates should protect you against every version of the virus they've seen.

Moderna and Pfizer each announced this month that their coronavirus vaccines prevent COVID-19 — the former's is 94.5% effective, while the latter's is 95%. Both companies hope to get approval from the FDA in the coming weeks.

Genetic evidence about the virus so far suggests that these vaccine candidates — and others in the race — are unlikely to need much tweaking in the future. That's because the coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2, mutates slowly — its genome remains relatively stable over time.

So any vaccine developed to target the original virus should work in the long-run against different versions that arise as it subtly evolves over time.
