My wife and I were in the Moderna vaccine trial. My wife, who has both heart and lung issues got the placebo (frowny face) while I got the actual vaccine. Since I developed achy muscles and a fever for a few hours I got tested for anti-bodies and fortunately had them. I then gave plasma and they also confirmed that I had the anti-bodies. Both Pfizer and Moderna “work” with the mRNA and each requires two shots, at least the Moderna shots are 28 days apart. I am a huge believer in both manufacturers.
