There has been a lot of mixed messaging and confusion about who should receive which COVID-19 vaccine in Australia, but now a third vaccine has been provisionally approved for use in everyone over the age of 18.

The Moderna vaccine is due to start being administered to Aussies as early as September, but how will it fit into the bigger vaccination rollout, and how do you know if it is right for you?

The Quicky speaks to a vaccine expert to find out how the Moderna jab compares to Pfizer and AstraZeneca, and everything we know so far about who will be offered it and when.
