The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has revoked authorization of Johnson & Johnson’s Covid vaccine after it was paused over rare blood clot concerns, which sent demand plummeting. 

The move was not unexpected because J&J’s parent company Jannsen had requested that federal regulators at the FDA withdraw authorization for its vaccine after it was revealed that the last tranche of doses – about 12.5 million – had expired.

As of year three of the Covid pandemic, nearly 231 million Americans have received either one J&J shot or two doses of an mRNA vaccine from Pfizer or Moderna.

J&J's COVID vaccine taken by 19 million Americans is PULLED by FDA after it was paused 'out of an abundance of caution' over rare blood clot concerns – which led to a plummet in demand by CASSIDY MORRISON https://t.co/ymO3XPOXVe via @FromtheTrenches
