The FDA has already granted Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) to boosters for the COVID-19 vaccine marketed by <b>Pfizer</b>(NYSE:PFE) and its partner <b>BioNTech</b>(NASDAQ:BNTX).</p><p><blockquote>美国的一个咨询委员会。美国食品和药物管理局(FDA)上周一致投票支持加强剂<b>现代</b>的(纳斯达克:MRNA)COVID-19疫苗和用于<b>强生公司</b>(纽约证券交易所股票代码:JNJ)疫苗。FDA已向以下公司销售的COVID-19疫苗加强剂授予紧急使用授权(EUA)<b>辉瑞</b>(纽约证券交易所代码:PFE)及其合作伙伴<b>BioNTech</b>(纳斯达克:BNTX)。</blockquote></p><p> Granted, the FDA doesn't have to go along with the recommendations from the advisory committee. It seems likely, though, that the agency will do so.</p><p><blockquote>诚然,FDA不必同意咨询委员会的建议。不过,该机构似乎很可能会这样做。</blockquote></p><p> Authorizations for boosters is good news for all of these leading COVID-19 vaccine makers. But Johnson & Johnson appears poised to be the bigger winner with boosters than either Moderna or Pfizer.</p><p><blockquote>对所有这些领先的新冠肺炎疫苗制造商来说,加强剂的授权是个好消息。但强生公司似乎有望成为比Moderna或辉瑞更大的赢家。</blockquote></p><p> No restrictions</p><p><blockquote>没有限制</blockquote></p><p> Pfizer's EUA for boosters came with several restrictions. The FDA decided that boosters would be allowed only for individuals ages 65 and older and for individuals ages 18 through 64 who are at high risk for developing severe COVID-19 or who work in environments that could put them at high risk of severe complications from COVID-19.</p><p><blockquote>辉瑞公司的加强剂EUA有几项限制。FDA决定,仅允许65岁及以上的个人以及18至64岁的个人使用加强剂,这些人有患严重新冠肺炎的高风险,或者在可能使他们有患严重新冠肺炎并发症的高风险的环境中工作。</blockquote></p><p> The FDA advisory committee's vote for Moderna boosters mirrored the restrictions for the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine. Assuming the FDA follows that recommendation, Moderna's market opportunity for booster doses will be just as limited as that of Pfizer and BioNTech.</p><p><blockquote>FDA咨询委员会对Moderna加强剂的投票反映了对辉瑞-BioNTech疫苗的限制。假设FDA遵循这一建议,Moderna的加强剂量市场机会将与辉瑞和BioNTech一样有限。</blockquote></p><p> However, the FDA panel placed no such restrictions on boosters for Johnson & Johnson's COVID-19 vaccine. Again, assuming the FDA goes along with the committee's recommendation, J&J's booster will be available to adults ages 18 and older at least two months after they received the first shot of the J&J vaccine.</p><p><blockquote>然而,FDA小组对强生公司新冠肺炎疫苗的加强剂没有这样的限制。同样,假设FDA同意委员会的建议,强生的加强剂将在18岁及以上的成年人接种第一针强生疫苗后至少两个月提供给他们。</blockquote></p><p> The Moderna and Pfizer-BioNTech vaccines require two initial doses whereas Johnson & Johnson's vaccine initially requires only a single dose. J&J's vaccine also provided lower efficacy than its rival messenger RNA (mRNA) vaccines. These factors heavily influenced the FDA advisory committee's decision to recommend broader use of boosters with the J&J vaccine.</p><p><blockquote>Moderna和辉瑞-BioNTech疫苗需要两剂初始剂量,而强生公司的疫苗最初只需要一剂。强生公司的疫苗效力也低于其竞争对手的信使RNA(mRNA)疫苗。这些因素严重影响了FDA咨询委员会建议更广泛使用强生疫苗加强剂的决定。</blockquote></p><p> Winning is relative</p><p><blockquote>胜利是相对的</blockquote></p><p> The demand for Johnson & Johnson boosters should be much greater as a percentage of initial vaccinations than it will be for Moderna and Pfizer-BioNTech boosters. From that standpoint, J&J will almost certainly be a bigger winner with booster shots than its rivals.</p><p><blockquote>对强生加强剂的需求占初始疫苗接种的百分比应该比对Moderna和辉瑞-BioNTech加强剂的需求大得多。从这个角度来看,强生几乎肯定会成为比竞争对手更大的赢家。</blockquote></p><p> However, the term \"winning\" is relative in this case. Johnson & Johnson has committed to selling its COVID-19 vaccine at cost during the pandemic. Boosters won't add a dime to the healthcare giant's profits over the near term.</p><p><blockquote>然而,在这种情况下,术语“获胜”是相对的。强生公司承诺在疫情期间以成本价销售其COVID-19疫苗。短期内,助推器不会为这家医疗保健巨头的利润增加一分钱。</blockquote></p><p> Also, only around 23.7 million doses of Johnson & Johnson's single-shot vaccine have been given in the U.S., according to the Centers for Disease Control & Prevention (CDC). By comparison, the total doses administered stands at 192.8 million for Moderna's vaccine and 278.1 million doses for the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine. Even without the restrictions imposed on boosters for rival mRNA vaccines, the pool for J&J boosters is much smaller.</p><p><blockquote>此外,根据疾病控制与预防中心(CDC)的数据,美国仅注射了约2370万剂强生公司的单针疫苗。相比之下,Moderna疫苗的总剂量为1.928亿剂,辉瑞-BioNTech疫苗的总剂量为2.781亿剂。即使没有对竞争对手mRNA疫苗加强剂的限制,强生加强剂的数量也要小得多。</blockquote></p><p> Perhaps the most important thing to understand is that EUAs for boosters isn't likely to lead to higher sales for any of these vaccine makers over the short term. The U.S. government has already ordered more than enough doses of all three vaccines to provide boosters to everyone who has already been fully vaccinated plus meet the needs for the remaining Americans who haven't been vaccinated.</p><p><blockquote>也许需要理解的最重要的事情是,加强剂的EUA不太可能在短期内为这些疫苗制造商带来更高的销售额。美国政府已经订购了足够剂量的所有三种疫苗,为所有已经完全接种疫苗的人提供加强剂,并满足其余未接种疫苗的美国人的需求。</blockquote></p><p> A different long-term picture</p><p><blockquote>不同的长期图景</blockquote></p><p> There could be a much different picture over the long term. Europe has already recommended boosters for the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine without the restrictions adopted in the U.S. It's possible that the U.S. could follow in Europe's footsteps in the not-too-distant future with the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines.</p><p><blockquote>从长远来看,情况可能会大不相同。欧洲已经推荐了辉瑞-BioNTech疫苗的加强剂,而没有美国采取的限制。在不久的将来,美国可能会追随欧洲的脚步,使用辉瑞和Moderna疫苗。</blockquote></p><p> As a result, boosters could eventually provide solid catalysts for mRNA vaccine stocks. There is some uncertainty about recurring revenue from COVID-19 vaccines after the pandemic is over. If there is a clear need for boosters at least on an annual basis, the leading vaccine makers should be able to count on strong sales continuing for years.</p><p><blockquote>因此,加强剂最终可以为mRNA疫苗库存提供固体催化剂。大流行结束后,COVID-19疫苗的经常性收入存在一些不确定性。如果至少每年都有对加强剂的明确需求,领先的疫苗制造商应该能够指望持续多年的强劲销售。</blockquote></p><p> However, the long-term dynamics could make it less likely that Johnson & Johnson keeps up its winning ways. Moderna and the Pfizer-BioNTech team appear to be ahead of J&J in developing new vaccine versions that target emerging coronavirus variants. The flexibility of these companies' mRNA technology could provide significant advantages in responding rapidly to new viral threats.</p><p><blockquote>然而,长期动态可能会降低强生公司继续获胜的可能性。Moderna和辉瑞-BioNTech团队在开发针对新出现的冠状病毒变种的新疫苗版本方面似乎领先于强生。这些公司的mRNA技术的灵活性可以在快速应对新的病毒威胁方面提供显著优势。</blockquote></p><p> Johnson & Johnson undoubtedly wants to be a major player in the COVID-19 vaccine market for years to come. And perhaps it will. The good news for the company and its shareholders is that it doesn't have to win in COVID-19 to still be successful overall.</p><p><blockquote>强生公司无疑希望在未来几年成为新冠肺炎疫苗市场的主要参与者。也许它会。对于该公司及其股东来说,好消息是,它不一定要在COVID-19中获胜才能保持整体成功。</blockquote></p><p></p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Why Johnson & Johnson Will Be a Bigger Winner With Boosters Than Pfizer and Moderna<blockquote>为什么强生公司将成为比辉瑞和Moderna更大的助推器赢家</blockquote></title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 12.5px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nWhy Johnson & Johnson Will Be a Bigger Winner With Boosters Than Pfizer and Moderna<blockquote>为什么强生公司将成为比辉瑞和Moderna更大的助推器赢家</blockquote>\n</h2>\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n<p class=\"head\">\n<strong class=\"h-name small\">Motley Fool</strong><span class=\"h-time small\">2021-10-19 19:10</span>\n</p>\n</h4>\n</header>\n<article>\n<p>It's looking like COVID-19 boosters will go three-for-three in winning authorizations.</p><p><blockquote>看起来新冠肺炎的支持者将以三比三赢得授权。</blockquote></p><p> An advisory committee to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) voted unanimously last week in support of boosters for <b>Moderna</b>'s(NASDAQ:MRNA) COVID-19 vaccine and for <b>Johnson & Johnson</b>'s(NYSE:JNJ)vaccine.
