The pause of Johnson & Johnson’s trials poses another setback for global efforts to develop a shot to protect lives and jump-start economies battered by the pandemic, as well as a reminder of the challenges of fast-tracking vaccine development

it is developing with the University of Oxford, citing similar reasons. AstraZeneca has since resumed trials in the U.K., but a large U.S. study remains on hold.

The dual setbacks affect two of four front-runner vaccine candidates being developed in the West. With winter approaching, world leaders hoped late-stage clinical trials could translate into approved vaccines that could be distributed to those most in need, including health care workers, and eventually to the broader population.

The prospect of a Covid-19 vaccine by year’s end has been a feature of political campaigns in the U.S. and fueled hopes for the reopening of countries in Europe and elsewhere. That has been underscored recently by rising coronavirus infection rates that have led to new lockdowns and kept millions of workers and students at home.as the J&J news prompted concern that it could take longer than expected for a vaccine to be widely available.
