It's been about a year and a half since the deadly Coronavirus took over all our lives, and as days turn to weeks and weeks to months, we learnt to live with the consequences of all that it brought. 

However, as scientists worked around the clock to bring a cure to the world, it would appear that as 2021 dawned upon us, hope surfaced. 

Releasing different types of vaccines for the virus, this year has seen people from all around the world receiving different variations of it, as means to put an end to Covid-19 once an for all. 

In Malaysia, the options are but 3, Pfizer/BioNTech, Sinovac/CoronaVac and AstraZeneca. But why 3 and what makes them different?

As citizens await their turn for either, the Pfizer/BioNTech or the Sinovac, on May 2nd the country made their third option, the AstraZeneca vaccine, an opt-in vaccine. Since then many have indeed opted in. 

Nevertheless, there has also been a lot of questions and doubt, about the AZ vaccine as compared to the other two. Due to that, we thought we'd highlight the differences in each of the 3, so, here they are:

Despite the differences they may have though, their end result is one in the same: to protect the body against the Coronavirus. It is no doubt that every vaccine has their own sets of risks, based on the body it is injected into, their efficacy may vary, and severe cases may exist. 

But when it's the lesser of two evils, it does feel like a 50% chance to not get/spread Covid-19, is better than a 100% chance to get/spread Covid-19.
