Monroe County Public Health Commissioner Michael Mendoza said Tuesday that the county would suspend use of Johnson & Johnson’s single-dose coronavirus vaccine after federal health agencies urged an immediate pause to administering the shot. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Food and Drug Administration called for a temporary stop to the so-called “one-and-done” vaccine after six women in the United States developed a rare disorder involving blood clots. Their illnesses surfaced within about two weeks of receiving the vaccination. Some 6.8 million people in the United States have received the Johnson & Johnson shot so far, according to the CDC and FDA.
