The Federal Commission for the Protection against Sanitary Risks (Cofepris) approved this Thursday the use of the vaccine against COVID-19 from the American pharmaceutical company Johnson & Johnson.
Through its official website, the agency authorized the Janssen vaccine, a single dose, for emergency use, so it can be used for inoculation of the Mexican population.
The Undersecretary of Prevention and Health Promotion, Hugo López-Gatell, reported that the Johnson & Johnson drug was also approved by experts and scientists from the Committee on New Molecules, who gave a favorable opinion for its use.
