my vaccine lady held out the little Moderna vial to me like a sommelier would show you a wine bottle and i sort of panicked and said "yes perfect thank you" like a fucking idiot

KEY POINTS ON J&J
— Ben Wakana (@benwakana46) April 13, 2021
-Pause is out of abundance of caution.
-6 blood clots in 6.8M doses administered.
-Pause will NOT have a significant impact on our vaccination plan.
-We're pushing out 25M Pfizer and Moderna doses each week.
- J&J = less than 5%of the shots in arms in US
A few comments on the J&J news:
— Natalie E. Dean, PhD (@nataliexdean) April 13, 2021
- A pause is not permanent
- The FDA is cautious because it’s important to be responsive to any safety concern; long-term trust is easily lost
- We have additional insights from the AZ vaccine used in Europe, which is also adenovirus-based

If you’re freaking out that 6 people out of 7 million have developed blood clots from the J&J shot- you should see the the statistics on birth control pic.twitter.com/oO7reT22pe

I’m all for safety but women have been getting blood clots from birth control for decades and they haven’t tried particularly hard to modify that

It's wild that everyone is freaking out about the AZ vaccine causing blood clots (1 in 250,000 chance) and no one bats an eye at birth control having a ONE IN A THOUSAND risk of blood clots.

Biggest takeaway: I hope that people feel even more reassured about vaccine safety, because they see how quickly, carefully & transparently our regulatory agencies are.https://t.co/gF5yq47AzL
