WASHINGTON Use of the Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 shot will remain paused for at least a week, after a federal vaccine advisory panel said Wednesday that it had too little data on a rare but serious blood-clotting condition reported in at least six women.
That means states and federally run vaccine sites will be relying on the other two authorized vaccines from Pfizer and Moderna until the panel meets again. The rare condition has not been reported following doses of those shots.
The Biden administration’s COVID-19 response team has said there are enough doses available of Pfizer and Moderna to continue the current pace of vaccinations nationally.

An advisory panel to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) remained with their decision to halt the usage of Johnson and Johnson COVID Vaccine in the vaccine rollout. This follows the panel s request for more information regarding J&J s rare blood clot occurrence.
The CDC, along with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), recommended the pause of J&J COVID vaccines on Tuesday, after a rare yet serious blood clot occurrence among six people who were inoculated with the vaccine brand, according to an NBC News report. Because of this, all 50 states in the U.S. have temporarily stopped administering Johnson and Johnson.
