Today 5:30 AM
Toledo Democratic Rep. Marcy Kaptur, right, is unlikely to continue representing Cleveland when congressional district lines are redrawn. The whole city will likely end up in the district represented by Warrensville Heights Democratic Rep. Marcia Fudge, left, before she became President Joe Biden s Housing and Urban Development Secretary.

AKRON, Ohio (WOIO) - The University of Akron and Kent State University will pause all Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccination clinics, after Ohio health officials, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) issued warnings about that vaccine.
According to health officials, six people in the United States developed blood clots after being given the one-dose Johnson & Johnson vaccine.
Health officials are telling anyone who received the Johnson & Johnson vaccine and develops severe headaches, abdominal pain, leg pain or shortness of breath within three weeks after vaccination, should contact their health provider.
