Top U.S. infectious diseases expert Anthony Fauci on Thursday said he is hopeful that the distribution and administration of the Johnson & Johnson coronavirus vaccine will get “back on track” soon.
Fauci's remarks come just one day after the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) postponed making a recommendation about the continued use of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine following a pause in the vaccine's use due to rare cases of blood clots.
"[The pause is] an indication that the CDC and the Food and Drug Administration take safety very seriously," Fauci told Reuters. "I hope they make the conclusion of this quickly and get back on track. And I believe they will."
=======================================================================
The more they delay in releasing this vaccine for general use the more people will hesitate about getting it.
