Johnson & Johnson vaccinations halted
Just as a six-day mass vaccination clinic was opening at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention announced that it was recommending "a pause" in the use of the vaccine after noticing six severe rare blood clots in women who had received the vaccine. Soon after, Indiana paused the use of the J&J vaccine.
The IMS clinic is now administering the Moderna vaccine. Around 6,000 people had signed up to receive the vaccine each day of the six-day clinic.
So, you may be wondering what happens if you're already scheduled to receive the Johnson & Johnson vaccine. Or, if you've already received it, what side effects should you be looking for that could mean you should seek medical attention. Lawrence Andrea has information on that here.
