Shipments of the single-dose Johnson & Johnson Covid-19 vaccine are expected to be down by 80 percent nationwide next week as the company struggles with manufacturing problems, the Biden Administration reported Friday.

Just 700,000 doses have been allocated, compared to the 4.9 million doses that were distributed across the country this week,White House Covid-19 coordinator Jeff Zients confirmed.

Johnson & Johnson will be delivering fewer vaccine doses next week, but Zients did not say how many although he insisted the company expects to be able to deliver 8 million doses per week by the end of April.

Zients also said Johnson & Johnson is in the process of installing a new management team at the Baltimore facility run by its manufacturing partner Emergent BioSolutions, which is where the vaccine production snafus have happened.

"The company is doing everything it can," Zients said. "They have their best people at that plant."

Johnson & Johnson spokeswoman Lisa Cannellos confirmed the company was working with the federal Food and Drug Administration to secure an emergency use authorization to get the plant up and running.

"The Company expects to deliver nearly 100 million single-shot doses of its Covid-19 vaccine to the U.S. government by the end of May," Cannellos said in a statement.

The dramatic drop in Johnson & Johnson shots was first reported by The Wall Street Journal.

The J&J shot was expected to significantly boost the pace at which Americans become fully vaccinated because it requires only a single shot.

The vaccine industry is pure evil

They are trying their very best in these next few months to get as many gullible idiots to inject their poison as possible and set them up for the rest of their life to get shots at government expense which they will rake it

All of the stories about Covid vaccines masks are all a communist who are trying to condition you for the government to run your life

This industry the vaccine industry has been around 70 to 80 years and he’s been in full-fledged psychotic mode for 50 of those years

This is America if you want to go lined up and take whatever concoction that the government tells you to I’m not trying to stop you

I am merely trying to warn people that this COVID-19 communist plot and it’s a worldwide flood is only beginning and they would love to force you to inject whatever they tell you to and you have no idea what’s in there

Again you have no idea what’s in there they don’t have to disclose the ingredients and even if you requested they will not provide you with the ingredients in that supposed shot that you’re supposedly getting

In Africa there are dozens and dozens of cases of poisons adjuncts and anti-fertility agents being put in vaccines to try to sterilize the African continent

These evil people stand on the shoulders of Jonas Salk and his polio vaccine

Let me tell you if you really study that you will see that many many people were armed and died from those very early attempted vaccines

The jury is not out there is no doubt about this all you have to do is do your own research

FYI on the Johnson vaccine:

My wife and I both got it, as that was the flavor of the day when we our appointment came through.

My experience: A few hours of mild chills that evening, nothing else.

My wifes: A bit draggier and achier than usual, which she decided to blame on the vaccine. Again, nothing dramatic.

Can we even visualize the chaos going on there?

Utilitarians in charge of making utility guineas out of Live Americans, calling the chaos Blue Sky.

It’s hilarious if it weren’t so; 1) pathetic, and 2) working.

“They have their best people at that plant.”

These are the different best people that spoiled 15 million doses, correct?

Or are they the better best people?
