12. I didn't realize Pfizer was considered

Superior to Moderna?

Moderna was the only one available to us in NC from Walgreens.

Hubby and I are fully vaccinated and feeling very confident.

Should we be less so because we got Moderna instead of Pfizer (thru no fault of our own).

Just curious.

Thanks,
