Pfizer - Moderna - Johnson & Johnson
Basic differences have to do with the spacing between 1st and 2nd doses (Pfizer 21 days, Moderna 28 days), storage (Pfizer has to be stored at much colder temperatures), effectiveness (Pfizer 95%, Moderna 94.1%) and age range approved for vaccination (Pfizer 16+, Moderna 18+).
