FILE - Vials of the Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine are seen at a pharmacy in Denver on Saturday, March 6, 2021. On Thursday, May 5, 2022, U.S. regulators strictly limited who can receive this vaccine due to a rare but serious risk of blood clots. The Food and Drug Administration said the shot should only be given to adults who cannot receive a different vaccine or specifically request J&J’s vaccine. U.S. authorities for months have recommended that Americans starting their COVID-19 vaccinations use the Pfizer or Moderna shots instead.

Not rare. my Dad died from the 'rare' side effect.

Remember when everyone said this was a conspiracy theory and mocked people for saying there was a rise in blood clots?

WHY would anyone young and healthy get a Covid vaccine rushed out by the proven KILLERS and LIARS, Johnson & Johnson

This can't be true. This can't be happening. The vaccines are safe damn it

MRNA is Way Worse! They haven't restricted them! Get a grip. Follow the money!

Well, now we see what happens when the govt and the pharmaceutical industry pushes a so-called safe drug onto society. You see why so many people demand the right to deny vaccines. You really do not know what damage they might cause.

RobSchneider Know someone with kidney disease after vaccine?: Full article: Every shot you take induces a protein spike which does permanent organ damage. Some die, others get permanently ill.

Again?

Get Vaccinated; IF YOU WANT!

It's like we've said this for over a year. Strange huh?

RobSchneider Am I insane, or did this information come out like a year ago? Why is everyone acting like it’s breaking news?

another W for the conspiracy theorists RVetts randomusernames

Wait, but I was told they were 'totally safe', and that I was crazy cause I didn't just blindly trust our good med experts... Most doctors just go with what they are told, and do little thinking or research of their own. And those Drs that do that, are ridiculed and ostracized.

Vaccinated, Twice Boosted. Fine. Never told that vaccines would “stop” covid. Vaccines keep people from dying. Unless you think 15 million world wide is too little. You see, in Jimmy’s fantasy world he expects perfection HalSparks bobcesca_go GetVaccinated

Time to approve Novavax please

No refunds for clot shots

Look, I got the Pfizer. I believe in the vaccines… but I believe in transparency too. This is literally the concern people raised, and were called crazy. Honesty and transparency matter, now more than ever. CDC and the gov need to earn some trust back & that’s not easy

I've seen this before

If only Twitter didn’t ban this opinion when everyone got it.

Yeah, Pfizer....
