I got the Pfizer. There is a very small study out of Israel last week that showed the Pfizer shot not doing as well against the South African variant. It hasn’t been peer reviewed yet so there are mostly news articles with the authors out there. I’d say check them out before you decide.
I posted that preprint here earlier, and the update from Dr Fauci.
I think even if you have the Pfizer vaccine AND get the South African variant, you are STILL not in the hospital. Which is the point, really.

Effectively, no real difference in effectiveness. More reported side effects (flu-like) from Moderna.
Reportedly, Moderna has 5X the genetic material of the Pfizer, so possibly more effective against variants. I would take either.

Given a choice I'd choose Pfizer over Moderna, but both offer essentially identical levels of protection - I wouldn't turn either down.
