My husband doesn't know which vaccine ; Pfizer or Spike vax (Moderna) is the best to have? Any Information/views would be great. What would you choose? Thankyou.

Depends whether he's asking which are most effective or which have fewer side effects.
I've had astra zeneka, Pfizer and moderna.
I was pleased to have moderna last time because I hoped it might be beneficial to mix them. No scientific basis for this!
Given a choice I would actually try and get a novavax as it works in a different way.
Fwiw the moderna I had in June gave me the sorest arm but the Pfizer I had last December gave me a couple of days of feeling rough.

Get Novavax if you can afford it. Lots of research online showing it's more effective and most people say they have no side effects from it.

Do you know whether the NHS do novavax anywhere?

Don’t think so. There is one organisation mediating it through certain pharmacies - I just googled.
