Although the Astra Zenica vaccine is significantly cheaper, 12% to 52% the cost compared to the price of the other vaccines. It is only about 76% effective against the dominant US strains and less than 25% effective against the S African b.1.351 strain. The Astra Zenica vaccine is a 2 dose. The Astra Zenica vaccine can be stored in refrigerator vs deep freezer which are not available world wide. Like the Johnson & Johnson neither is approved for use in the US yet. South Africa cancelled its order due to its apparent ineffectiveness to the variant b.1.351 strain. Their is preliminary evidence that the Astra Zenica vaccine becomes more effective if there is a greater span between 1st and 2nd dosage 12 weeks. There are possibilities that the vaccine can be modified for the b.1.351 variant though.
