Vermont is preparing to resume the use of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine against COVID-19 next week if the federal government gives the green light, Gov. Phil Scott said Friday.
A federal government advisory panel is deliberating a possible link between J&J’s shot and a small number of vaccine recipients who developed highly unusual blood clots. New guidance is expected late Friday.
“Depending on the outcomes of the advisory committee, we could begin vaccinating as early as Tuesday in the Northeast Kingdom,” said Deputy Human Services Secretary Jenney Samuelson during the governor's twice-weekly virus briefing. If the federal government issues a recommendation Friday evening, the state will likely have more information to share on its plans as early as Saturday morning, she said.
