And, point proved.

That listing a bunch of things in benign terms is really productive, sure.

I talked about it before but you need to sue liars out of existence. Fox will survive but they’ve got real problems. It’s about damn time.

Yeah, clearly it's his friends who are the problem.

Tim Young
If the Cubs and White Sox canceled a game every time a black person was shot and killed in Chicago, they'd never play baseball again.

Kaycee Sogard liked this tweet during the Cubs game. I’ll be so glad when they are gone.

That seems like more of an indictment of Chicago than of Sogard.

Sounds like Shelby County (TN) and the state of Mississippi are both halting distribution of the J&J vaccine temporarily...

Saw something about the CDC recommending it.

It sounds like the same issues that the AZ vaccine has and it was temporarily stopped in Europe before it was restarted.  0.000088% developed a clot.

Here are some other ways to look at it.
Dr. Angela Rasmussen
@angie_rasmussen
For perspective, here are some numbers:

1 in 1,000,000: J&J vaccine
1 in 3,000: oral contraceptives
1 in 5: hospitalized COVID-19 patients

As someone who got the J&J vaccine 8 days ago, and who took oral contraceptives for 20 years, I’ll take these odds.

Just hopefully they can get to the bottom of things with the J&J vaccine soon.  Literally last night I was chatting it up with a guy in my building who said he wouldn't take the vaccine unless whoever might force him to do it guaranteed him $10 million if something went seriously wrong.  News like this can't help with people like that.

I'm more than 2 weeks out from my J&J vaccination, and haven't dealt with even the slightest side effect.

Cannot believe it's been halted. Absolutely the wrong messaging at a time like this, given comparative odds to contraceptives or, just, you know, GETTING COVID.

Yeah, not great messaging. My parents are currently refusing to get their shots but I was hoping I'd be able to eventually convince them to get the J&J vaccine since it's not an mRNA vaccine. This kind of reaction and reporting won't help me with that.

Why would the fact that it's an RNA vaccine increased one's hesitancy?  I don't get that.
