Officials predict minor local impacts from vaccine pause

Officials predict minor local impacts from vaccine pause April 22nd 4:44 pm | Maggie Nelson, KUCB News   State health officials have asked Alaska vaccine providers to follow federal recommendations to pause the use of the Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccines due to a clotting risk. More than 7 million doses of the Johnson & Johnson coronavirus vaccine have been administered across the U.S., but a handful of women have gotten a blood clot afterward, prompting the pause. In Unalaska, however, that halt is not expected to have much of an effect on the city s vaccination effort, according to local health officials. I think in the grand scheme of vaccination, it s not going to change things much, said Megan Sarnecki, medical director and family medicine physician for the Iliuliuk Family and Health Services clinic. [The pause] came on relatively late. We didn t have very many [Johnson & Johnson] doses. And luckily, we ve already given out a lot of vaccinations [in general].
