Evanston pauses Johnson & Johnson vaccine

Evanston’s Health & Human Services Department is temporarily discontinuing the distribution of the Johnson & Johnson (Janssen) COVID-19 vaccine until further notice per federal and state recommendation, according to a Tuesday news release.
Of the more than 6.8 million doses of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine administered in the U.S. as of April 12, six have led to reported cases of a rare and severe type of blood clot requiring atypical treatment. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Food and Drug Administration’s joint statement, all six cases led to symptoms six to 13 days after vaccination, occurring in women between the ages of 18 and 48.

COVID-19 Update on April 7: Seventeen New Cases in Evanston, 3,790 in the State

Vaccine Safety for Kids 6 Months and Up
Last week, Pfizer and BioNTech announced that in a Phase 3 trial in adolescents 12 to 15 years of age, “the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine demonstrated 100% efficacy and robust antibody responses, exceeding those recorded earlier in vaccinated participants aged 16 to 25 years old, and was well tolerated.”
“We share the urgency to expand the authorization of our vaccine to use in younger populations and are encouraged by the clinical trial data from adolescents between the ages of 12 and 15,” said Albert Bourla, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Pfizer. “We plan to submit these data to FDA as a proposed amendment to our Emergency Use Authorization in the coming weeks and to other regulators around the world, with the hope of starting to vaccinate this age group before the start of the next school year.”
