“I do not want to come before the CDC and the FDA and the advisory committee, but I would think that what we would say is that it would come back and it would come back in some warning or restriction,” he told CNN’s Dana Bash said about ‘State of the Union’.

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) is scheduled to meet Friday to discuss recommendations for the J&J vaccine. The CDC and the Food and Drug Administration on Tuesday recommended stopping the use of the J&J Covid-19 vaccine over six cases of a rare and serious blood clot reported in the US.

However, Fauci said that interviews are the wise thing to do, saying that “you want to make sure you have all the information you need.”

He compares J & J’s coagulation reports with those of the AstraZeneca Covid-19 vaccine, which is authorized in much of Europe and has similar coagulation reports. He noted that the AstraZeneca vaccine reports’ go beyond just women, there are some with some men involved. There was also a great show of the centuries. ‘

Fauci told Bash he hopes a decision will be made by Friday and that a decision is needed somehow.

The ACIP committee originally held an emergency meeting on Wednesday last week, but the vote on a recommendation was delayed until next Friday.
