U.S. Calls for Pause on Johnson & Johnson Vaccine After Clotting Cases
MSN, Apr 13, 2021, NY Times
WASHINGTON — Federal health agencies on Tuesday will call for an immediate pause in use of Johnson & Johnson’s single-dose coronavirus vaccine after six recipients in the United States developed a rare disorder involving blood clots within about two weeks of vaccination, officials briefed on the decision said.
All six recipients were women between the ages of 18 and 48. One woman died and a second woman in Nebraska has been hospitalized in critical condition, the officials said.
Nearly seven million people in the United States have received Johnson & Johnson shots so far, and roughly nine million more doses have been shipped out to the states, according to data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
While the move is framed as a recommendation to health practitioners in the states, the federal government is expected to pause administration of the vaccine at all federally run vaccination sites. Federal officials expect that state health officials will take that as a strong signal to do the same.
Scientists with the Food and Drug Administration and C.D.C. will jointly examine possible links between the vaccine and the disorder and determine whether the F.D.A. should continue to authorize use of the vaccine for all adults or limit the authorization. An emergency meeting of the C.D.C.’s outside advisory committee has been scheduled for Wednesday, officials said.
An F.D.A. spokeswoman declined to comment.

I'd start with hormone birth control pills ...

Yes, apparently the chance of clotting already is substantial with birth control pills. The J&J vaccine just multiplies it, but only 6 cases of blood clots out of 7 million doses isn't that great, is it?

I'm afraid to answer this question @mountaineer .... any time I bring up numbers, I get whacked with an anti-vaxer bat. :laugh:
Hopefully it won't take J&J long to connect these dots.

I honestly don't know what to believe anymore about the various vaccines. They're dangerous or they're not, they protect people against the virus or they don't ... *****rollingeyes*****

Great. I was about to sign up for this one and now they are going to force us into the two shot mRNA vaccines—prolonging the crisis into the summer.

That's a theory worth looking into.
-
At this point it is not known whether the J&J vaccine caused the clots. It's 6 people who had clots out of nearly 7 million people who have received the J&J vaccine. What is the normal rate of this kind of clot among the general population? I haven't seen that number in any of the reports I've seen about this. Weird question: IF the 6-in-7-million "rate" for J&J recipients chances to be lower than the rate in the general population, could it be argued that the J&J vaccine is somewhat protective against clots of this type?
At a more general level, the FDA is tracking all "adverse event" reports for all the approved vaccines. This is normal, the Phase 4 test; it is also normal for something being used under Emergency Use Authorization. That an adverse event occurs and is reported does not mean the adverse event was caused by the vaccine, only that repeated events of the same type will be investigated.

So reality has become weird:
https://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2021/04/a-vaccination-pause-that-seems-senseless-and-harmful.php
A VACCINATION PAUSE THAT SEEMS SENSELESS AND HARMFUL
But the decision by the FDA and CDC to recommend a pause in the administering of the J&J vaccine seems like an unforced error. According to the joint statement of these two agencies, 6.8 million doses of this vaccine have been administered in the U.S. Six people who have received the vaccine (via a one time shot) have reported experiencing a rare and severe type of blood clot associated with strokes.
...
Moreover, according to Johns Hopkins Medicine, five out of a million people experience this rare blood clot every year. Thus, one-in-a-million might overstate the extent to which the J&J vaccine has produced the clot.
I don’t understand how the FDA/CDC recommendation can be justified. The effects of the pause will be (1) to slow down the effort to vaccinate all Americans who want to be vaccinated and (2) to cause fewer Americans to want to be vaccinated, due to unjustified fear of serious side effects.
In response to criticism, the FDA says the pause in administering J&J’s vaccine will last “a matter of days,†assuming findings favorable to a resumption. ...
So the clot occurrence rate among J&J vaccine recipients is slightly less than 1 in a million, while the rate for the general population is 5 in a million. Cue Rod Serling.

How many deaths from the vaccines are not being reported. How many side effects aren't being reported?
I watched the video -- https://seed167.bitchute.com/BFwpmlvkLsJY/Dccv1kgGBBLl.mp4 I think it should raise concern. Again, I've also heard from a couple of people in the medical field who will not get it as the vaccines were rolled out way too quickly.
CDC investigating death possibly connected to Johnson & Johnson vaccine
The death of a woman who received the single-dose Johnson & Johnson vaccine is under investigation by federal health authorities as part of a broader probe into potential "adverse side effects" from the vaccine.
Virginia State Vaccination Coordinator Danny Avula released a statement on Tuesday that confirmed the March death is being investigated by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention over a potential link to the vaccine.
The Virginia death was reported to the CDC’s Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System, Avula said........

I'd start with hormone birth control pills ...
Which raises the concerns with the vaccines from the onset; anyone who has reactions to other medications should not get the vaccines. For some reason, that first warning shot has been ignored.
How is one to know if the vaccines will interact with certain meds or meds that some people are taking. It may trigger a reaction with someone taking a medication and not trigger a reaction in someone else taking the same medication. Who truly knows? Testing has not been comprehensive enough.
So even IF it turns out that those who are on birth control (which is quite a lot) have a higher clot reaction to the vaccine, what is it about the J&J vaccine that is different than the Pfeizer or Moderna that is causing clotting?
Right now the focus is on the J&J vaccine and no reports of any side effect from the other vaccines? B.S.
-
Are you a woman between 18 and 48?
No, but I live in a state that just decided to follow the "recommendation" and suspend all administration of this vaccine until further notice.
The local pharmacies are using J&J. There are a few county mass vaccination sites but they're using Moderna, which I'm hesitant to get because 1) the side effects are pretty strong and 2) I am not eager to wait almost two months just to be able to do the things I used to be allowed to do, provided, of course, they don't all get canceled again. The J&J side effects, from what I've understood so far, have been fewer than the Pfizer shot, which in turn is less than Moderna's. I have a good enough immune system that the one-shot should suffice for me.

I had higher expectations for the J&J vaccine thinking that the one dose would of course be more palatable with less side effects, but it's turning out that all the vaccines have some serious side effects. :shrug:

The Pros and Cons of Different COVID Vaccine Technologies Explained
https://nationalinterest.org/blog/reboot/pros-and-cons-different-covid-vaccine-technologies-explained-169291
Each vaccine aims to use a slightly different approach to prepare your immune system to recognise and fight SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19.
However, we can group these technologies into five main types. Some technology is tried and trusted. Some technology has never before been used in a commercial vaccine for humans.
As we outline in our recent paper, each technology has its pros and cons.
1. DNA/RNA-based
DNA and RNA vaccines use fragments of genetic material made in the lab. These fragments code for a part of the virus (such as its spike protein). After the vaccine is injected, your body uses instructions in the DNA/RNA to make copies of this virus part (or antigen). Your body recognises these and mounts an immune response, ready to protect you the next time you encounter the virus.
...
2. Virus vectors
These vaccines use a virus, often weakened and incapable of causing disease itself, to deliver a virus antigen into the body. The virus’ ability to infect cells, express large amount of antigen and in turn trigger a strong immune response make these vaccines promising.
Examples of viruses used as vectors include vaccinia virus (used in the first ever vaccine, against smallpox) and adenovirus (a common cold virus).
...
3. Inactivated
Inactivated vaccines are a tried and trusted method of vaccination. It’s the technology used in the vaccine against poliovirus and in some types of flu vaccines. Inactivated vaccines contain viruses treated with heat, chemicals, or radiation so they cannot replicate, but can still trigger an immune response.
...
4. Live-attenuated virus
Live-attenuated vaccines are among the most successful existing vaccine strategies, already used to protect against measles and polio. These contain virus weakened in the lab. The virus is still viable (live) but cannot cause disease. After vaccination, the viruses in these vaccines grow and replicate, stimulating an excellent immune response.
...
5. Protein subunit
Subunit vaccines do not contain live components of the virus, but are made from purified pieces of the virus (protein antigens) that trigger an immune response. Again, this is an existing technology, used for instance in hepatitis B vaccines.
Pfizer's and Moderna's are mRNA type vaccines. The mRNA is used in cell's ribosomes to produce proteins which the body's immune system recognize as foreign and produce antibodies against the proteins.
J&J's is a virus vector type vaccine, a different technology that acts in a different way.
Right now the focus is on the J&J vaccine and no reports of any side effect from the other vaccines? B.S.
The test data for all three vaccines can be found on the Internet, if your question is serious rather than argumentive and rhetorical. The side effects for all three are published and discussed in that data. There are many posts around TBR by TBR members speaking of the side effects they've experienced. If you're on FB you've probably also seen posts by some of your FB friends about their experiences, as have I. Have you not seen any such TBR or social media posts?
-
Silicon Valley pharmacies are using one or more of the three vaccines. The Safeway near me has just J&J, which I assume is currently suspended. The pharmacy at which I signed up has Pfizer (first dose in a couple of weeks). I think Mrs. PeteS and my younger daughter received their first dose of Moderna today (it actually was Pfizer) through their employer, a health foundation similar to Kaiser. I'm not convinced vaccination is necessary for any of us (we've had and recovered from Covid), but our health plans cover it and there are other reasons it'll be useful.

'Weird Alex' Pareene
@pareene
I'm no public health expert, but from what I've seen the clotting issue needs study. But since it only affected women, the right move would've been for the FDA to declare J+J the "Dudes Only" vaccine and then print t-shirts that say "It Takes a Real Man to Handle This Johnson"

1. The vaccines approved for use in the US are in no sense, "unknown substances".
2. Many who have recovered did so after significant hospital stays and lengthy recovery after release. Myself being one. Covid is much less trivial than you make it out to be.
-
Yes, apparently the chance of clotting already is substantial with birth control pills. The J&J vaccine just multiplies it, but only 6 cases of blood clots out of 7 million doses isn't that great, is it?
That comes out to slightly less than 0.0001%, 1/10,000 of 1 percent. For this they "paused" (stopped, really) the vaccinations for a segment of the population that has a 99.99% survival rate for COVID.
Journos and politicians hate pocket calculators. Look for Twatter and Bookface to ban them.

They are certainly unknown to me and, I strongly suspect, 99+% of other people as well.

So you say. I remain unconvinced.

I have not said that you lied about anything but I strongly suspect that you are trusting the opinions of others as to the actual cause of all that. I sincerely hope and pray for the best possible outcomes for you and your wife.
Reality is that Covid is not just an extra unpleasant cold or flu.
IMHO COVID-19 is a construct of the Chinese government purposefully deployed (read biological attack) for the primary purpose of getting rid of Donald Trump as president of the United States and weakening the economies of the entire world as a side benefit.
You are entirely free to believe whatever you like but I am not required to agree with it.

CDC chief admits they have NO proof J&J vaccine causes blood clots and says they're pausing it mainly to talk to doctors about how to treat the rare condition - as experts call it one big overreaction
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9470175/CDC-chief-admits-NO-proof-J-J-vaccine-causes-blood-clots.html (https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9470175/CDC-chief-admits-NO-proof-J-J-vaccine-causes-blood-clots.html)
The CDC's Deputy Director has admitted they have no proof Johnson & Johnson's vaccine actually causes rare blood clots and revealed one of the main reasons they've stopped giving it out is to give them time to talk to doctors about how to treat the condition, as some experts called the decision to suspend the shot an 'overreaction' that will stunt the US's COVID-19 recovery.
The CDC and FDA on Tuesday made a shock announcement that they were recommending a pause in J&J's one-shot vaccine, which seven million people in the US have had and millions more were looking forward to getting.
...
On Wednesday morning, Acting CDC Principal Deputy Director Dr. Anne Schuchat was asked bluntly during an appearance on Good Morning America whether they had proof that the vaccine was causing the clots.
'A key component of why we are on this pause is so that we can educate the clinicians about how to diagnose and treat this condition because the usual treatment could actually make things worse,' she said.
George Stephanopoulos asked: 'Just to be clear, there's no evidence - you haven't established - that there's a link between the vaccine and these blood clotting events, have you?'
She replied: 'No'.
When I scheduled my vax appointment yesterday I started with a site that showed availability from multiple locations - CVS, Safeway, Rite Aid, Walgreens, etc.. The location nearest me had just the J&J vaccines, which would have been OK with me, but I figured it would at least temporarily be suspended and not making appointments. So I kept looking and found a slightly less close location with the Pfizer vax. In a very small way, this suspension affected me, and to read a rrthree CDC upper mangler rrthree admitting they have established no link between clots and the JNJ vax rrthree but are just "educating the clinicians about how to diagnose and treat this condition" rrthree leaves me less than thrilled. 22222frying pan
The committee that is supposed to review the cases was scheduled to meet today, but I haven't seen any related news reports.

CDC panel adjourns without vote on extending J&J COVID vaccine pause
https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/cdc-panel-adjourns-without-vote-on-extending-j-26j-covid-vaccine-pause/ar-BB1fEPuB
A Centers for Disease Control and Prevention advisory committee did not vote Wednesday on whether to extend the nation's pause on Johnson & Johnson's COVID-19 vaccine, after experts on the panel argued there was still insufficient data to make final recommendations in light of the serious, rare blood clotting events potentially linked to the shots.
While the CDC's current pause on Johnson & Johnson's vaccine is not binding, the warning issued by federal health officials on Tuesday urged that vaccinations be suspended only until the panel voted on "updated recommendations" for using the vaccine. In response to the FDA and CDC advisory on the pause, all states and D.C. and Puerto Rico have opted to temporarily stop administering this vaccine.
rrthree Not deciding is still a decision. rrthree In this case the bureaucrats "decided" to keep J&J and businesses holding stocks of J&J vaccine in limbo. rrthree
Nice vaccine you got there. It'd be a shame if a committee of bureaucrats made it worthless by not allowing it to be used.

Okay, I doubt this guy was taking birth control pills.
Mississippi man partially paralyzed, unable to talk after J&J vaccine
By Jackie Salo
April 15, 2021 | 5:20pm
A Mississippi man who experienced a blood clot after receiving the Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine, has been left paralyzed on one side of his body and unable to talk, his family said.
Brad Malagarie, 43, of St. Martin, suffered a stroke soon after stepping out last week to get the one-dose shot, news station WLOX reported.
“They called me and said he had that vaccine and something is wrong, we think it’s a stroke,†his aunt, Celeste Foster O’Keefe, told the outlet.
The father of seven was rushed to the hospital, where they determined that he had a stroke as a result of a blood clot in his brain, the outlet reported.
“I said be sure to tell the doctors he took that J & J vaccine and that, to me, is what caused his stroke,†his aunt said.
O’Keefe said he took medication for high blood pressure, but was otherwise a “young, healthy†man.
Now, the medical episode has left him paralyzed on the right side of his body, she said. ...

Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 Vaccine Roll-out to Resume in Europe Following European Medicines Agency (EMA) Review
https://www.jnj.com/johnson-johnson-covid-19-vaccine-roll-out-to-resume-in-europe-following-european-medicines-agency-ema-reviewema-confirms-overall-benefit-risk-profile-remains-positive (https://www.jnj.com/johnson-johnson-covid-19-vaccine-roll-out-to-resume-in-europe-following-european-medicines-agency-ema-reviewema-confirms-overall-benefit-risk-profile-remains-positive)
NEW BRUNSWICK, N.J., April 20, 2021 – Johnson & Johnson (NYSE: JNJ) (the Company) today announced that the European Medicines Agency’s (EMA) Pharmacovigilance Risk Assessment Committee (PRAC) has provided updated guidance for use of the Company’s COVID-19 vaccine and confirmed the overall benefit-risk profile remains positive. The guidance follows PRAC review of a small number of cases of a very rare adverse event involving blood clots in combination with low platelet counts that can occur within approximately one to three weeks following injection with the Company’s COVID-19 vaccine.
As a result, Johnson & Johnson will update its COVID-19 vaccine Summary of Product Characteristics and Package Leaflet to include important information on the diagnosis and management of this very rare adverse event. Healthcare professionals will be alerted to the signs and symptoms of thromboembolism with thrombocytopenia, as well as the appropriate course of treatment.
Here's the link to the EMA PRAC conclusion, https://www.ema.europa.eu/en/news/covid-19-vaccine-janssen-ema-finds-possible-link-very-rare-cases-unusual-blood-clots-low-blood .
Because its vaccine had not yet been distributed in EuroLand J&J (Janssen Research is a J&J subsidiary) had suspended distribution to allow the EMA to do their evaluation. The decision reflects these types of blood clots in people who had received the J&J vaccine being very rare. The rate of occurrence among vaccine recipients (less than 1 in a million) is similar or lower than the rate of occurrence in the general population. As with the AZ vaccine, the EMA will continue to monitor safety and effectiveness. For the present healthcare providers will be informed about recognition and treatment of this type of blood clot.
The speculation I've seen is that the FDA will approve resumption of J&J usage, probably with similar info being given to healthcare providers. How the FDA handles J&J may be applied to AZ's vaccine, if AZ applies for and receives approval.
Despite the clot rate associated with the vaccine being similar or less than the random population rate, and being a thousand times lower than ordinary clots from birth control medication, this kerfuffle may have severely diminished public acceptance of the J&J vaccine.

CDC committee votes to resume Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine despite possible blood clot link
https://www.foxnews.com/health/cdc-committee-votes-resume-johnson-johnson-covid-19-vaccine-despite-possible-blood-clot-link (https://www.foxnews.com/health/cdc-committee-votes-resume-johnson-johnson-covid-19-vaccine-despite-possible-blood-clot-link)
A Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) advisory committee is recommending that the Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine resume rollout, but include new language on the product’s emergency use authorization (EUA) warning remote risks of serious blood clots. The Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices held the vote Friday after the FDA and CDC had recommended a pause in the Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine rollout last week due to several instances of a rare, severe blood clot amid a backdrop of over 7 million recipients.
The vote was 10 to 4.
One committee member abstained.
The recommendation will now go before CDC Director Dr. Rochelle Walensky for approval.
A couple of days ago the EU's similar agency decided to proceed with the J&J vaccine roll-out, https://www.jnj.com/johnson-johnson-covid-19-vaccine-roll-out-to-resume-in-europe-following-european-medicines-agency-ema-reviewema-confirms-overall-benefit-risk-profile-remains-positive .

NEW BRUNSWICK, N.J., April 23, 2021 – Johnson & Johnson (NYSE: JNJ) (the Company) today announced that vaccinations with the Company’s COVID-19 single-shot vaccine will resume for all adults aged 18 years and older in the U.S., under Emergency Use Authorization (EUA), following a decision from the United States Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
The decision was based on a recommendation from the U.S. CDC Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP), which followed a rigorous evaluation of data relating to a very rare adverse event involving blood clots in combination with low platelet counts (thrombosis with thrombocytopenia) observed within approximately one to two weeks following vaccination.
...
Johnson & Johnson has updated the EUA Fact Sheets for Healthcare Providers Administering Vaccine (Vaccination Providers), and Recipients and Caregivers for the Company’s COVID-19 vaccine, to include information about the diagnosis and treatment of thrombosis with thrombocytopenia. The revised EUA fact sheets is available at: www.janssencovid19vaccine.com.
