We are going to book our spring COVID vaccine and have been offered a choice. I don't know enough to know which one to get, any help would be appreciated (we live in England if that helps anyone with variant knowledge).

1. Spikevax JN.1 (Moderna)
2. Comirnaty KP.2 (Pfizer/BioNTech)
3. Comirnaty LP.8.1 30 (Pfizer/BioNTech)

A reminder that Covid is still a thing: “Its official name is BA.3.2, but it's earned the nickname ‘cicada’ because, analogous to the insect's pattern, it first appeared back in 2024, went dormant for a while, and resurfaced in the U.S. late last year.”
