NEW YORK — Are some COVID-19 vaccines more effective than others? It’s hard to tell since they weren’t directly compared in studies. But experts say the vaccines are alike on what matters most: preventing hospitalizations and deaths. »Luckily, all these vaccines look like they’re protecting us from severe disease, » said Dr. Monica Gandhi of the University of California, San Francisco, citing study results for five vaccines used around the world and a sixth that’s still in review. And real-world evidence as millions of people receive the vaccines show they’re all working very well.
