Johnson & Johnson pause makes it harder to vaccinate reluctant, hard-to-reach patients

Print this article The pause of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine has, in some areas of the nation, made it hard to get shots into the arms of people who are homebound, live long distances from vaccination sites, or are generally reluctant to get a COVID-19 vaccine. Johnson & Johnson is a one-dose vaccine, something that some people find convenient, especially if their primary mode of transportation to a hospital is an airplane. “The Johnson & Johnson vaccine is … more convenient for people to utilize when they have difficulty scheduling a second dose,” said Shirley Young, a spokeswoman for the Alaska Native Medical Center in Anchorage. “For instance, if someone flies in from a rural area to Anchorage in order to have surgery and hasn’t yet been vaccinated, then the Johnson & Johnson vaccine would be a good fit.”
