New York, USA.- The New York state government suspended the application of the vaccines produced by the pharmaceutical company Johnson & Johnson after serious irregularities and health complications were reported in several patients. One of the most worrisome problems has been the report of blood clots in some people who have received the vaccine. The information was provided by Health Commissioner Howard Zucker.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommended early this morning that the United States should cancel the application of this vaccine. In cities like New York, this vaccine has been applied to approximately 234,000 people, and so far no serious health problems have been reported as has happened in other parts of the country.
However, the Health Commissioner stated that they will be closely monitoring any report that is reported, and that the protocols recommended by the Federal Drug Administration will be applied. Mayor Bill de Blasio stated that he believes in the effectiveness of the vaccine, and that there is no reason for society to be alarmed by this news.
New York is attentive to the development of this news since many have preferred this vaccine in relation to the others. The Johnson & Johnson vaccine only requires a single dose, compared to the others that require two doses. Other people have had health problems after receiving the COVID-19 vaccine, manufactured by other companies.
Notably, experts in Europe also reported some rare and serious cases related to blood clots and the Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine.
