Fauci says Moderna vaccine may have similar results as Pfizer vaccine

That's great news

How many vaccines function well is important because it will change the timeline of how soon most people are vaccinated. Vaccine-makers are manufacturing massive amounts of doses of each candidate and the more that work well, the sooner everyone can get it and get back to normal.

What's similar about the Moderna candidate is that it's using the same MRNA technology as the Pfizer candidate.
