Abstract

Highlights: All three vaccines have substantial efficacy in preventing symptomatic and severe Sars-CoV-2 infection. Vaccine dissemination is important due to the rapid mutagenic nature of the virus and continuing decline in the health and economies around the world. Further attempts to achieve widespread access of the vaccine is vital for all preventative measures to be maximally successful.
