Johnson & Johnson
After six people were found to have blood clot-related side effects, federal health officials have recommended a pause on Johnson & Johnson coronavirus vaccines.
Oklahoma health officials are following suit.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration announced Tuesday morning that six people developed a very rare, but very serious, side effect after receiving the Johnson & Johnson vaccine. The complication is rare six cases in almost seven million recipients.
Officials said during a Tuesday media briefing that they are exercising an abundance of caution. The numbers are quite small. Small enough that it’s hard to generalize, but large enough that we wanted to take action with the pause, said Dr. Anne Schucat, principal deputy director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Oklahoma Indian Gaming Association
The Oklahoma Indian Gaming Association s annual conference is still a go. But, some adjustments will be made.
OIGA officials say they felt it was possible to hold their event in July, but have instead pushed it to August 16-18th. Organizers wanted to give people more time to get their vaccinations.
The conference features a trade show, a poker tournament, guest speakers and a chance for industry officials to network in what the association dubs the biggest little show in Indian Gaming. The event is expected to draw nearly 3,000 people to downtown Oklahoma City.
Last year s conference was canceled due to the pandemic and this year will feature safety precautions like a bigger facility to allow for social distancing.
