The vacancy against covid-19 of the Johnson & Johnson (J&J) multinational has been topped with the Catholic Church in the United States, where some obispos are recommended not to use this suer to be unrolled with cells mother obtenidos abortionos.
The most recent summary of these remarks was made by Bishop Robert Deeley, of the Portland Diocese, who ha pedido a sus feligreses que opten por otras vacunas que no sean la de J&J.
In a statement, Deeley stated that “if you can choose between safe and effective vacancies against covid-19, you should choose vacancies with minor connections with abortion-derived cell lines”.
“For such – siguió–, if any have the ability to choose a vacuna, the Pfizer and Modern Deberian las are cherished antes than the Johnson & Johnson “.
Abortion, at the center of controversy
Deeley summarizes in this way the sentiments of some of the leaders of the Conference of Catholic Bishops of the United States, who dejó clara su postura esta semana.
The President of the Doctrine of Doctrine of this Institution, the Bishop Kevin C. Rhoades, and the Archbishop Joseph F. Naumann of Kansas City, in charge of the Conference Proceedings Committee, will issue a statement on February 2. expresses his doubts about the preparation of J&J, which “raises questions about the moral permeability of staffing vacancies, probations and / or production with the help of abortion-derived cell lines”.
And I understand that, as with the vacancies of Pfizer and Modern, this type of cell is tested, but not in its production, J&J has been developed, tested and manufactured with them.
For this reason, it is agreed that J & J’s suer will not be able to opt to receive any of the other two.
On the other hand, the J&J aborted the court, citing the recommendation of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Fa of the Vatican, which considers that “when vacancies against covid-19 are not reprehensibly available, it is morally acceptable to receive vacancies against covid-19 that hayan used lines of abortion fetuses in its research and production process “.
Some diocesan students adopted a similar stance, like that of New Orleans or Pittsburgh, which he recommended to Catholics opt for the preparations of Pfizer and the Modern Front from J&J, although others like the bishop Robert W. McElroy, who dirige la de San Diego, sostienen that it is legitimate to receive any of the three vacancies approved in the country.
“Debating that we live in a complicated world, the Catholic moral teaching in times is very complex and has matrices in its reasoning, so that we can navigate the balances of good and evil, to the hour of confronting McEl ethical options.
Wake up, an act of “amor verdadero”
“Pero – continued – in the concrete moral and pastoral question of receiving the vacancies of Pfizer, Moderna, Johnson & Johnson or AstraZeneca, I would like to clarify and the Catholic communities of San Diego and the conditions of the current pandemic, with limited vacancy options available to log a cure for our nation and our world, is completely legitimately morally receivable any of the four“.
And it seems that when it receives some of these pharmacies, it shows “amor verdadero” to Dios y al projimo.
Fetal abortion has been employed for decades in scientific investigations, as the search for treatment for cancer or cancer.
Following an article of the magazine Science June passed, Abortion derivatives cells are employed since the 60th day of sailing in the manufacture of vacancies, such as rubella, varicella or hepatitis A; as well as to prevent treatment against diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis or hemophilia.
Per.C6, cells of a fetus, fruit of an abortion of 1985
Agreed to this text, as of June 2020, at least five candidates for vacancies against covid-19 uses one of the two human fetal lines: HEK-293 and PER.C6.
Specifically, PER.C6 is a line of cellular property owned by Janssen, subsidiary of J&J, which was removed from the cells of the retina of a fetus of 18 weeks, fruit of an abortion in 1985.
The J&J vaccine, which employs PER.C6, receives authorization for EU emergency use at the end of the week, sums up with Pfizer and Modern.
It is prepared only require a dose and temperatures of preservation without tan extremes as the other alternatives, for which the logistics of the administration of the suer is most easy.
At the moment, the citizens of this country he did not have the option to choose the vaccine against covid-19 that deseen, it depends on the dose that is available in the room where the recipient is.
