Novavax Inc. jumped as US regulators fully approved its Covid vaccine, easing investors’ concerns after the clearance was delayed and US Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. raised doubts about its efficacy.

The vaccine will only be available to those at high risk from COVID—excluding those who may need it to protect a relative or friend.
