Federal regulators have limited the authorized use of Johnson & Johnson’s COVID-19 vaccine due to its risk of causing potentially life-threatening blood clots, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration said Thursday.
Administration of the single-dose vaccine, developed by J&J pharmaceutical subsidiary Janssen, will be limited to adults who cannot access the other federally authorized vaccines and adults who would not otherwise get vaccinated unless they receive a J&J shot.
While the vaccine remains effective at preventing serious illness and death, FDA officials said the risk of developing thrombosis with thrombocytopenia syndrome, or TTS, within two weeks of receiving the J&J vaccine is enough to limit its use for adults.
“We’ve been closely monitoring the Janssen COVID-19 Vaccine and occurrence of TTS following its administration and have used updated information from our safety surveillance systems to revise the (emergency use authorization),” FDA Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research Director Dr. Peter Marks said in a statement.
“The agency will continue to monitor the safety of the Janssen COVID-19 Vaccine and all other vaccines, and as has been the case throughout the pandemic, will thoroughly evaluate new safety information,” Marks said.
Federal regulators first issued an emergency use authorization for the J&J vaccine in February 2021. In April of that year, both the FDA and U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommended a pause in the J&J vaccine’s use after six cases of TTS were reported.
California public health officials also temporarily paused the vaccine’s use, as did local health officials in the Bay Area.
Ultimately, the CDC and FDA confirmed 15 total TTS cases among the 8 million J&J vaccine doses that had been administered at that time.
“The FDA has determined that the reporting rate of TTS is 3.23 per million doses of vaccine administered and the reporting rate of TTS deaths is 0.48 per million doses of vaccine administered,” the agency said in a statement.
As of Friday, 18.7 million doses of the J&J vaccine have been administered in the U.S., roughly 3 percent of the nearly 578 million total vaccine doses received across the country.
Some 220 million U.S. residents have completed their initial vaccination series, roughly 66.3 percent of the population.
And Pfizer as well, ahh just do them all we know it has been the biggest lie of our lifetime
I agree with your thoughts that they should thoroughly look at VAERS reports for all COVID ‘vaccines’…the truth is finally surfacing…no doubt the CDC, FDA and WHO have lost all credibility in my book!

Terrible what has been done to mankind.
LOL, we posted here 6 months ago that the J&J jab QUIETLY stopped being offered.
It’s almost like “conspiracy theorists” are… completely right almost all the time.
Children all over the world are suddenly having liver problems.
And the CDC is working overtime to prove it isn’t related to the vaccine.
Anyone who listened to fauci, the CDC and democrats should not be allowed to vote. You lost your rights to make critical decisions about our country.
Lets all line up for the Fauci DEATH JAB! Baa Baa
Bill Gates population control! People will be dropping like flies. Not me.
Never got “MY SHOT” and never will.
The shots are “SAFE AND EFFECTIVE”. Now get in the cattle car. We are going for a little ride.
Safe and effective. Uh-huh.
Come and get um! Blood clots are just the beginning of the fun we have in store for you!
Come one, come all and lineup for the third jab. Step this way for the grandest hoax the world his ever seen. It’ll amaze and delight and make your liver quiver. All for the measly sum of nothing. Yes folks, you will be entered automatically in the Red Clot Lottery…..Hear ye, hear ye, come one, come all……..
Third? I know people who are on their fourth and eyeing their fifth!
Wait a few more months to see the start of the medical problems that will go on and on. Every day there are more side effects popping up.
I guess some people have a clot to be concerned about.
You must be talking about the various effects of “long Covid. The latest effect of getting infected with Covid is turning out to be impotence. But then a little Viagra will fix that, so I guess it’s not really that much of a problem.
the people in the comments think they’re so clever😭 it hurts to read💀
Ari is not happy about taking the 3rd boosta. Don’t be hating on my beautiful pureblood. You could have made a different choice.
Probably a lot less than a blood clot… get a life. All these folks were RIGHT and they deserve to say “I told you so.”
That’s it…I’m getting an I TOLD YOU SO! t-shirt. 😁
A lot less than a blood clot?
Yeah like AIDS and gene drive extinction tech good bye bloodline you traded it for krispy creme. SAD.
Isn’t this Becton’s fault? Asking for a friend.
Yes, Tod……it’s Becton’s fault; and whoever believes that probably believes Jan. 6th was an insurrection.
So let’s see if we can keep score:
J&J gets the chop
Paxlovid gets the chop
Covaxin (the only REAL vaccine got the chop)
Pfizer mRNA gets golden child despite not working to prevent infection or transmission…? Hmmmmmmm….
Been outside around people, places, and things everyday ever since the coronavirus supposedly was transmitted from a bat to humans (or escaped from lab in China or was put out by the Chinese government to promote population control) in late 2019 and since the lockdowns in the U.S. happened in mid March 2020.
Never quarantined for a single day. Broke the quarantine rules for “essential travel only” everyday of the lockdowns. Because America was still land of the free in my mind. And apparently I felt brave at home (in America) even though the government, news media, social media, socialists, communists, politicians, privatized healthcare workers, health department, and the brainwashed public thought I was stupid and then some.
Came across many people who have claimed they had Covid and had symptoms or didn’t. Some also said they were exposed to people with Covid. Never got sick from them.
Wore a mask only indoors so I would not get kicked out and/or arrested of wherever I was at so I could take care of errands and duties like buying food or going to the store to buy basic necessities (toilet paper).
Never got vaccinated.
Why am I not dead yet?
Am I invincible or magical? Am I a four leaf clover in disguise?
@concerned Citizen
Don’t pay any attention to “Lol”. You’re not an idiot…..just a benefactor of good genetics.
Wow…it’s finally happening. People are waking up. The truth is what matters most …as long as people are awake enough to see it.
Here is a great quote from: https://sunnylanblog.wordpress .com/2022/03/09/dna found in coronavirus was patented by moderna 3 years before the pandemic/
“After Moderna and Pfizer mRNA injections had been marketed as “vaccines” for over a year, a Bayer pharmaceutical executive admitted to the public that they are indeed a form of “gene” and “cell therapy” marketed as vaccines to make the shots more palatable to the public.
“We are really taking that leap [to drive innovation] – us as a company, Bayer – in cell and gene therapies … ultimately the mRNA vaccines are an example for that cell and gene therapy. I always like to say: if we had surveyed two years ago in the public – ‘would you be willing to take a gene or cell therapy and inject it into your body?’ – we probably would have had a 95% refusal rate,” stated Bayer Executive Stefan Oelrich.
“Our successes over these 18 months [the duration of the COVID ‘pandemic’] should embolden us to fully focus much more closely on access, innovation and collaboration to unleash health for all, especially as we enter, on top of everything else that is happening, a new era of science… the Bio Revolution.”
I’m surprised this story hasn’t been censored yet
