Johnson & Johnson : Rare spinal condition listed as side effect Johnson & Johnson : Rare spinal condition listed as side effect

Europe’s drug regulator on Thursday recommended adding a rare type of spinal inflammation called transverse myelitis as a side-effect of Johnson & Johnson’s single-dose covid19 vaccine.

Reports of this serious neurological illness was also at the heart of trial halts in the early stages of development for both AstraZeneca and Johnson & Johnson’s shots, which are based on similar technology.

Dr. Macaya Douoguih, head of clinical development and medical affairs for J&J’s vaccines division Janssen, said there is no data to suggest people are at increased risk of a rare but serious blood clot condition after receiving a second dose.

A massive study comparing the real-world effectiveness of three COVID-19 vaccines (Pfizer, Moderna and J&J) over eight months has detected protection from infection may decline but protection from death holds strong. Tracking nearly 800,000 U.S. Veterans, the study found Johnson & Johnson’s single-dose vaccine showed the greatest decline.
