I'm not anti vax but this isn't true. If you're a women under 55, and one of the mRNA is available (or even available soon) , it's worth seriously considering avoiding the J&J.

Drs recommend getting what is available j&hj isnt bad if it was it would be banned

Ten out of 1000 is an acceptable rate

The vaccine is safer than the car ride to get the vaccine. We are dealing with infinitesimal odds here.

If J&J is the only one available to you, then take it, but if you have the option to choose the other ones, I'd choose the other ones.

any vaccine that uses spike protein to promote an immune response is going to come with a risk of blood clots, since it appears that spike protein itself causes blood clotting issues. thing is the vaccine produces so small a number of the molecule that only the most sensitive are going to have serious issues, and those same people would have far worse issues with it if they caught covid.

point is that no vaccine is absolutely safe, but the chance of complications is significantly lower then the chance of severe illness from covid if you skip it.

I thought it was like a dozen people dying out of nearly seven million who have taken it.

It depends on your individual risk. If you're high risk for blood clots, a woman under 55, are following cdc guidelines, and the mRNA vaccines can be available to you relatively soon, you might want to pause on the J&J.

If you're high risk, your male, or only J&J is available, then yes, get the J&J asap.

It's not always as simple as "get whatever you can first." Sometimes it is but but always

A dozen cases but only 2 died.

Getting covid is way more risky.

It safe unless you are a younger woman, also avoid birth control if you want to or have to get it (as it may substantially increase clotting risks).

It is safe, stop going by news stories

Yes just like how they should consider not taking birth control for the benefits that outweigh the risks. People come on lol.

think the risk for blood clots in male is only 2 cases compared to 6 cases in what the woman occurred aka 66% reduction in risk. it can still happen but it's very unlikely.

i got the J&J vaccine 3 weeks ago, would i get it again? yes. i hate the hassle of double needle.

Actually given the talcum powder class action you could probably make a case for that

Less than 1 in a million got the blood clot issue.
