Some of the Covid-19 vaccines use aborted fetuses, and some use aborted fetuses in testing of the vaccine.
Information I have found so far:

Here is a couple of cut and pastes from Children of God for Life who have extensive information on the vaccines.
These points are in the comment section of the article and are good short informative quotes on the vaccines currently available in Canada: Pfizer and Moderna.
"Pfizer/BioNTech was morally produced and contains no aborted fetal material. They did testing of the product on the HEK-293 cells but they are not part of the product, unlike the others listed in the red column on our website."
"There are no aborted fetal cells used in the production of the Pfizer vaccine; they tested the completed product. This is completely unlike Moderna’s vaccine that used aborted fetal cells IN the spike protein production which is part of their vaccine and they have done extensive research, development and testing using aborted fetal cells as well."
"The information on both Pfizer and Moderna is on our website here: https://cogforlife.org/wp-content/uploads/CovidCompareMoralImmoral.pdf The proof is linked to the science documents showing the data. The two vaccines do use the same technology – but one chose to do it morally (Pfizer) using adult donor cells and the other (Moderna) chose aborted fetal in the construct of their vaccine. However, they both tested their vaccines on aborted fetal cells."
"In the case of Pfizer, the HEK-293 cells were used only in the final testing, whereas Moderna used them in the research, development, testing and production of their spike protein. Pfizer on the other hand, created their protein using K562 cells from an adult female donor. The cells in both vaccines are NOT IN the final product. Both of the vaccines use mRNA technology which has never been used in any vaccines before."
"Both Pfizer and Moderna are using the mRNA technology. Pfizer did it morally (other than final testing) and Moderna did it immorally in their research, development, production and testing."
UPDATE Dec 30. 2020 more information and opposing viewpoints
Here is another viewpoint on the current vaccines available (Pfizer and Moderna). The article is long but worth the read.
CONGREGATION FOR THE DOCTRINE OF THE FAITH
Bishops Strickland and Schneider are both against the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines.

In the end, each person must make their own decision to take, or not to take, the current vaccines available. I am hoping that before my turn comes to get it that I have a third option that did not use aborted cell lines in either the vaccine, or in its testing.
