Duggan welcomes J&J COVID shots after prior comments come under fire
Detroit Mayor Mike Duggan appeared Friday to walk back comments he made this week after turning down doses of the Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine amid pushback from public health experts.
The more positive comments about the Johnson & Johnson one-shot vaccine came on the same day that President Joe Biden s senior adviser on COVID response claimed Duggan s comments were misinterpreted. The mayor s office issued Friday afternoon a more forceful endorsement of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine.
The developments followed a statement earlier in the week by the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops that advised Catholics against taking the vaccine if given a choice.
