CDC Warns Americans NOT To Get J&J Shot Over Blood Clot Risk After Nine Deaths by iwatchandlisten(m): 1:12pm On Dec 17, 2021
CDC warns Americans NOT to get J&J shot over blood clot risk following nine deaths: Panel unanimously recommends more effective Pfizer or Moderna vaccines instead - pharma-giant says it 'remains confident'

* CDC panel on Thursday recommended Pfizer and Moderna over J&J shots
* J&J jab has rare but serious side effects and appears to be less effective
* Until now, all three shots have been treated equally by US authorities
* CDC Director Rochelle Walensky must decide whether to accept panel's advice

Most Americans should be given the Pfizer or Moderna mRNA vaccines instead of the Johnson & Johnson shot that can cause rare but serious blood clots, U.S. health advisers recommended Thursday.

The strange clotting problem has caused nine confirmed deaths after J&J vaccinations - while the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines don't come with that risk and also appear to be more effective, advisers to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said.

It's an unusual move and the CDC's director, Dr. Rochelle Walensky, must decide whether to accept the panel's advice.

Until now the U.S. has treated all three COVID-19 vaccines available to Americans as an equal choice, since large studies found they all offered strong protection and early supplies were limited.

J&J´s vaccine initially was welcomed as a single-dose option that could be especially important for hard-to-reach groups like homeless people who might not get the needed second dose of the Pfizer or Moderna options.

But the CDC´s advisers said Thursday that it was time to recognize a lot has changed since vaccines began rolling out a year ago.

More than 200 million Americans are considered fully vaccinated, including about 16 million who got the J&J shot.

More than 200 million Americans are fully vaccinated, about 16 million of them with the J&J vaccine.

The other two vaccines used in the U.S. - from Pfizer and Moderna - account for the vast majority of vaccine doses administered in the country.

The CDC experts say that the two mRNA vaccines do not have the same risk, and unlike in the spring when vaccine supplies were tight, Pfizer and Moderna shots now are plentiful in the U.S.

The J&J shot also shows signs of being much less effective against the Omicron variant, and a booster is recommended just two months after the dose, opposed to six months for Pfizer and Moderna.

COVID-19 itself can cause potentially deadly blood clots. But the suspect culprit for the vaccine-related kind is a rogue immune response linked to both the J&J shot and a COVID-19 vaccine made by AstraZeneca.

Both of those vaccines are made similarly, using a cold virus known as an adenovirus, although AstraZeneca's shot is not used in the U.S.

The FDA this week warned that another dose of the J&J vaccine shouldn't be given to anyone who developed a clot following either a J&J or AstraZeneca shot.

At issue is a weird kind of blood clot that forms in unusual places, such as veins that drain blood from the brain, and in patients who also develop abnormally low levels of the platelets that form clots.

Symptoms of the unusual clots, dubbed 'thrombosis with thrombocytopenia syndrome,' include severe headaches a week or two after the J&J vaccination - not right away - as well as abdominal pain and nausea.

Several other countries already have recommended age restrictions for both the AstraZeneca and J&J vaccines, or that preference be given to the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines.

J & J Vaccines uses the traditional method of administering Vaccines aka viral vector that's why these people want to out it out of business and promote the DNA temparing mRNA Vaccines.

Is it the mRNA that isn't giving out blood clots.

The data is in the clinical trials of all three which was used for the Emergency Use Authorisation. You should be able to find the summary pretty easily on cdc and fda websites.

About half the rate of common reactions as the other two and no serious adverse reactions.

The VAERS data also shows it to be safer than the other two.
The “rare” instances of clots are astronomically higher in the other two vaccines yet the fda cdc media say nothing about those.

They have been trying to sabotage the j/j vaxx since the beginning, took longer to approve it, cdc “paused” it which was illegal for cdc to do, denied their booster authorization app, denied they younger population app, demonized by the media, etc all over less than a dozen blood clots in women who were on oral contraceptives which cause blood clots.


While at the same the other two had close to 500 admitted instances.
Something just seems fishy is all.
Pretending like the other two have no issues while constantly trying to limit this one? I’m not saying there is no potential for harm but it’s NOT EVEN CLOSE to the other two. And it is false that it changes your DNA. it is not an mRNA technology vaccine. It also doesn’t use sars cov 2 spike proteins. It uses adenovirus spike proteins which is the common cold virus.
So I’m just wondering why they keep attacking it. From the very beginning they’ve been doing that.

And no one can ever explain it without using vague and speculative language. Even in the so called anti vaccine community.
