Former President Donald Trump has used a New York Post opinion piece to persuade the Biden government on Friday night to allow a break in the Johnson & Johnson coronavirus vaccine, accusing them of being ‘insanely risk-averse’. bureaucrats let the show run. ‘
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the Centers for Disease Control & Prevention (CDC) announced on Tuesday morning the suspension of the use of the vaccine, citing six cases of women having cerebral venous sinus thrombosis in combination with thrombocytopenia, a rare brain blood clot.
The former president sent an e-mail Friday night repeating the arguments of the New York Post editorial board, namely that the cases were rare enough that they would not prevent the explosion of the vaccine, and the move ‘pure madness ‘call.
“The federal break on the J&J lap makes no sense,” the statement read.
‘Why does the Biden White House insanely run the risk-averse bureaucrats? Only six people out of the nearly 7 million who received the Johnson & Johnson vaccine reported blood clots, “reads the statement.
‘The condition is more common in the general population, and every vaccine – indeed every medication – carries some risk, including the Moderna and Pfizer samples.
‘As COVID cases continue to increase nationwide, it’s just plain crazy to delay millions of vaccinations and give fears among the wax-resistant people. This moronic move is indeed a gift to the anti-wax movement: the scientific bureaucrats are driving the disturbed pseudoscience. ‘
While the interruption in the use of the J&J survey would initially last only a few days, the CDC’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) decided on Wednesday that the break should remain in force until the panel meets again in seven to ten days. .
The Biden government defended the break, arguing that it was the right precaution to keep Americans safe.
“Science is moving at the speed of science and they want to review more data. We believe this is the gold standard, the [Food and Drug Administration] The FDA is the gold standard in the world, “said Jen Psaki, press secretary of the White House, on Thursday.
“Actually, their thorough and transparent approach should give the American public extra confidence in the role they play and the approach that the United States takes with regard to the approval of vaccines available on the market.”
