The following message was shared with the OHIO community on April 13, 2021.
This morning we learned – along with the rest of the nation – that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) have announced a pause in distribution of the Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine out of an abundance of caution after identification of a rare and severe blood-clotting disorder. These symptoms occurred 6 to 13 days after vaccination and occurred in only six individuals out of the more than six million people who have received the Johnson & Johnson vaccine in the U.S.
