The study tested blood serum from 8 subjects who had finished their second Moderna vaccine one week earlier.

It seems that the Janssen vaccine from Johnson & Johnson is disappearing in the sunset.  Any idea why?

J&J went into decline in the US when its manufacturing contractor screwed the pooch and produced tens of millions of contaminated doses. By the time they got it straightened out the public sentiment ran the gamut from "No, thanks" to "Are you nuts?"

J&J will probably factor into the US/UK/EU vaccine diplomacy efforts.
