Palomar Medical Center s chief medical officer, Dr. Omar Khawaja, told NBC 7 that delivering two doses isn’t twice as difficult for medical teams, it s five to 10 times more difficult due to temperature controls, the expiration of the vaccines and how stable it is after it s drawn up by a pharmacist are all factors to consider, Khawaja said.
Khawaja said Palomar’s home medical crews won’t wait long for the J&J vaccine, however.
“I think we would give it maybe another week or so, Khawaja said. We will start to activate secondary plans that would include using Pfizer and Moderna for our home health patients.”

The reports appear similar to a rare, unusual type of clotting disorder that European authorities say is possibly linked to another COVID-19 vaccine not yet cleared in the U.S., from AstraZeneca.

People rolling up their sleeves to get their COVID-19 vaccine at Cuyamaca College in El Cajon Sunday were relieved to get their one and only dose of the Johnson & Johnson shot before supply runs short.
“We know what’s happening with the Johnson & Johnson vaccine so I had to make sure I got here today,” said David Johnson, a La Mesa resident who received his dose alongside his wife, Betty, after making their appointments last Sunday.
California is expected to see a significant drop in the number of Johnson & Johnson vaccines it receives next week as millions more residents become eligible. Cierra Johnson reports.
“I’m glad it’s done. I don’t have to think about it anymore,” said Jenny Douglas of Encinitas after her shot was given by firefighters who are part of Operation Collaboration.
Several people told NBC 7 they felt lucky to get their shots. A few, like Lindley Mesa, said they felt bad that more people couldn’t be in their shoes.
“I was looking online for a couple of weeks and as soon as I could get one, it didn’t matter what my schedule was, Mesa said. “Today I was glad to get in.”
