The Family Medical Center at the Johnson County Healthcare Center will resume administering the Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine Wednesday, following a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention advisory panel recommendation. The advisory panel stated that the benefits of the vaccine outweigh the risks.
The CDC and FDA recommended a pause in the administration of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine on April 13 following reports of rare blood clots in six women nationally.
Nine more cases were reported, for a total of 15. According to the CDC, the overall rate of events was 1.9 cases per million people.
“In terms of benefits, we found that for every 1 million doses of this vaccine, the J&J vaccine could prevent over 650 hospitalizations and 12 deaths among women aged 18-49, and this vaccine could prevent over 4,700 hospitalizations and nearly 600 deaths among women over 50,” CDC director Dr. Rochelle Walensky said.
