Johnson & Johnson had a very bad week — but fears of negative reactions and blood clots are likely overblown
Business Insider ^ | Aria Bendix

Johnson & Johnson's coronavirus vaccine rollout hit several unfortunate snags this week — some far worse than others.

The New York Times reported on Tuesday that 62 million of the company's vaccine doses must be checked for contamination, following an error at a Maryland manufacturing plant that already ruined 15 million doses. The plant's workers accidentally mixed up some vaccine ingredients last month.

Then a vaccination site in Colorado, three sites in North Carolina, and one in Georgia all temporarily stopped administering Johnson & Johnson's shot after about 45 people in total experienced minor adverse reactions involving nausea, dizziness, fainting, or lightheadedness.

To top it off, European regulators announced Friday that they are investigating Johnson & Johnson's shot for links to unusual blood clotting after four blood-clot cases, including one death, were reported among vaccine recipients.

"You don't want to be fueling unnecessary worries about the safety of vaccines when you're still seeing an enormous outbreak and death rates all over the world from COVID," Art Caplan, a bioethicist at New York University, told Insider.

He added that the side effects observed at the US vaccination sites were "absolutely trivial."

Although symptoms like nausea and fainting aren't common responses to coronavirus vaccines, they aren't abnormal, either.

Praying for real numbers. Real transparency. Real coverage. Of the manufacturing errors. The unexpected adverse reactions both on and off site. etc...

“Art Caplan, a bioethicist at New York University”

Imagine a bioethicist telling people to take an aborted cell line shot. This is where we are now.

Overblown? Not if you or a loved one dies from the vaccine. Blood clots are very scary in themselves, wonder how many now have them and don’t know it? Strokes now or later because of the vaccine. What’s the response, don’t worry and oops?

Cue Jenifer Lawrence meme.

I always expected there would be powerful interests trying to steer people to moderna and pfizer, given their investment

While the sites closed for adverse effects are concerning, I think we have to recognize this is what happens when medical care is depersonalized and experimental meds are just jabbed into the arms of people walking in off the streets, with no realistic screening of their individual risks by contracted vaccine clerks

I still think this is a hit on J&J by the competitors because J&J is selling their vaccine at cost, no profit.

Industrial sabotage.. imho. Pfizer will not tolerate competition, most assuredly. The incident in the facility— will we ever learn HOW and what happened in this profit seeking time line. J&J’s method of delivery of the “vaccine” is unique... through adenovirus vector. Creating a perhaps better “antibody” response, which others may not. All in Beta testing nationally with politicization of science the reality as to the marketing of the “vaccines” under EUA from FDA. This is our med world of today— trust is on the block.

“If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?”

If a news story is presented which goes against the globalist agenda, does it matter?

The Media is in bed with globalists.

Truth is dead.

Except for the people who died taking it; but in this case, the powers that be will say it was due to underlying conditions and not the vaccine.

Got my J&J vaccine a week ago yesterday.

Really weird symptoms.

First, My spinal muscles contracted and locked up. Could not stand up, bend, ... all week.

Second,on the one week my skin turned red all over my body and itched like a bad sunburn. Had to take a Benadryl to sleep and not itch last night.

Finally, after a week, feeling better.

This was far worse than when I had Covid-19.

The muscle pain was severe. On a 1 to 10 it was a 10. Worse than major abdominal surgery for cancer.

For some reason you are writing posts in Chinese. Did you get the JNJ shot last week by any chance?
