CDC, FDA Say Johnson & Johnson Vaccine Safe to Use Despite Recent Blood Clots, Vaccination Can Resume
Newsweek via MSN ^ | 04/23/2021 | Scott McDonald

Posted on 04/23/2021 6:59:49 PM PDT by SeekAndFind

The Johnson & Johnson single-dose COVID-19 vaccine that was paused last week by the federal government has been given the green light again, despite 15 blood clots and one death that caused the pause in the first place.

The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved the drug's reentry into the vaccine market for emergency use authorization (EUA).

"Following a thorough safety review, including two meetings of the CDC's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have determined that the recommended pause regarding the use of the Johnson & Johnson (Janssen) COVID-19 Vaccine in the U.S. should be lifted and use of the vaccine should resume," the FDA stated in a release Friday evening.

The pause was implemented after reports of six rare cases of a rare, and severe, type of blood clot in individuals following administration of the Johnson & Johnson Janssen COVID-19 Vaccine.

"During the pause, medical and scientific teams at the FDA and CDC examined available data to assess the risk of thrombosis involving the cerebral venous sinuses, or CVST (large blood vessels in the brain), and other sites in the body (including but not limited to the large blood vessels of the abdomen and the veins of the legs) along with thrombocytopenia, or low blood platelet counts," the FDA stated.

The CDC and FDA both determined the following:

* Use of the Janssen COVID-19 vaccine should be resumed in the United States.

* The FDA and CDC deem this vaccine is safe and effective in preventing COVID-19

* The FDA determined that available data show the vaccine's known and potential benefits outweigh its known and potential risks for those 18 and older

They did the same thing in the EU. Doctors concerns for their patients were dismissed and their Faucsists resumed the injections. :(

The FDA and CDC deem this vaccine is safe and effective in preventing COVID-19
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

But the FDA and CDC are silent when Fauci says the ‘vaccines’ are FDA approved. Why won’t the FDA and CDC be honest?

No.

Only approved drugs are safe and effective.

No quite from FDA said it’s safe.

Notice the media never mentions the thousands of reactions from the other vaccines. Not a word.

Fauci gets millions in royalties from Big Pharma drugs. He needs to knock the safer and easier to store J & J vaccine out of the market.

The other two are so unstable that nobody knows the actual dose you end up with.. So they give two doses. Some people are getting a placebo.

Does he say that?

If so, that’s a good point. 1) they are not approved. 2) the FDA is normally quite vigilant in corrected false statements people may make about approval, safety and efficacy.

Next week we will see if they fixed their manufacturing process during the pause.

I was just going to bring that up. So this vaccine has caused at least one death, that we know of, and at least a half a dozen blood clots and who knows what else. Then you had the report with millions of doses were dumped in the garbage because they couldn’t even get quality control at the plant done right, and I’m expected to trust them in the CDC. How did it get that far along in the manufacturing process what are you screw up tens of millions of doses before you realize it

The wise thing to do would to limit it to males and women over 60. But one shouldn’t expect wise decisions from the CDC.

According to these scientists....

Scientists Find How AstraZeneca Vaccine Causes Clots

In his new study, Greinacher and colleagues describe a series of events that has to happen in the body before the vaccines create these large clots. He explained that while everyone has the basic immune machinery that leads to the unusual clots, it is almost always kept in balance. The body uses a series of checks to prevent any step in the process from getting out of control.

In some cases, however, there’s a perfect storm where each stage progresses to the next and the end result is very hard to control. That autoimmune attack, which causes the body to go into a hyper-clotting state, typically burns itself out after a few weeks. So if patients can get rapid treatment, the condition nearly always goes away.

He said he only knew of one case of an autoimmune syndrome like this lasting 10 years, but that was in a patient who had taken the blood thinner heparin, which can cause a nearly identical syndrome.

As for why the reaction appeared to be more common in women, Greinacher said he was growing skeptical that there is a large gender bias. He pointed out that most of the first vaccine recipients in Europe had been health care workers, who are disproportionately women.

He noted that women might be slightly more susceptible because of hormones and because women are more likely to develop autoimmune diseases, but that the risk was probably more balanced between men and women than it first seemed.

Look up “polio vaccine” and “Cutter Labs”

I’d be more worried about those wankers in Baltimore mixing the ingredients up correctly.
