As per reports, Johnson & Johnson’s (JNJ) Covid-19 vaccine is under review by the European Union’s drug regulator after four critical cases of unusual clots accompanied by low blood platelets were reported after taking the immunization with the J&J shot. The regulator is now investigating potential safety issues for two Covid vaccines after AstraZeneca Plc’s shot linked to a rare blood-clotting disorder.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration informed that it has provided information to the EU regulator about reports of clots in a few individuals who were vaccinated with the J&J Covid-19 vaccine shot.
Though J&J’s vaccine is approved in the EU, its rollout in the bloc is not expected to start until later this month.
Peter Arlett, EMA’s head of analytics informed that the numbers of clot cases in people who took the J&J shot have been less so far in comparison to the total number of people getting the vaccine worldwide. “I think it would be fair to say there is intensive monitoring of this issue across the vaccines,” Arlett added.
