37% of the participants were from minority communities & 42% had other conditions or ages that put them at high risk of severe disease
Males outnumber females in the trial by 53% to 47%.

Out of the 95 Covid-19 cases, 20 participants identified as being from "diverse" communities, including 12 Hispanic people, four African Americans, three Asian Americans and one multiracial.
In August, Moderna said it was charging between $32 and $37 per dose for its vaccine for some customers, under cheaper "pandemic pricing." The company said it was in discussion for larger volume agreements that will have a lower price.
