Johnson & Johnson s COVID-19 vaccines can be used again at immunization clinics around Michigan, state health officials announced Friday night.
The decision came hours after a federal oversight panel recommended lifting an 11-day pause in administering the Johnson & Johnson vaccine because a rare clotting disorder had developed in a small number of people who received it.
“We are glad to be able to begin administering the Johnson & Johnson vaccine again in Michigan following the thorough review and recommendations,,” said Dr. Joneigh Khaldun, the state s chief medical executive and chief deputy for health, in a statement.
