Recent announcements from Pfizer and Moderna have raised hopes about a possible COVID-19 vaccine. Both companies said their vaccines had proven to be more than 90 percent effective in clinical trials, but it’s still unclear when they will become available. How many does are needed, and how long will the protection last?
