I imagine something like this happened when I went in the navy, but it's one of those things I've blanked out. The only thing I remember clearly from my medical was when I was tested for colour blindness. I was shown a pattern of different coloured dots and had to pick out the number. But I couldn't see any pattern, so the doctor was saying "look, see there's an 8"--and I went, oh yeah, I see it now. Not that I'm colour blind, I'm just bad at pattern recognition.

Had the Johnson and Johnson nearing 2 weeks ago and I haven't had any reactions outside the day of getting and first day after.
Dizziness, fatigue, the NEED for water (I lost track of how much water I drank in those two days), my back was killing me, and I slowed down immensely. People at work noticed it about an hour after I came in that I wasn't in good shape. But second day post-vaccine and I was fine and back to mostly normal. I think everyone in the household has gotten the J&J and so so far so good. Shame it's getting pulled though but I'd much rather we figure out if everything is ultimately safe and we are knowledgeable about what it can do in terms of side effects.

The problem is (sadly) a political one. We all know the type who will be beating their chest, rendering their clothing, screaming "you knewwww, you knewwww it could happen" and make it out like this is intentional poisoning. It's dumb. Every single person on this planet is far more likely to die from Covid than these rare examples of the blood clot. More are likely to die in a car accident, you don't see anyone banning cars. Hell, more are likely to be hit crossing the street than this blood clot, or be murdered in their homes. Yet here we are.... IDIOTS! The lot of them. It's a simple numbers game.
BLOOD CLOT RISKS
Oxford/AstraZeneca - 3 in 1,000,000
Women not taking hormonal contraception - 2 in 10,000
Combined oral contraceptive pill - 5-12 in 10,00
Pregnancy +6weeks postnatal - 1-2 in 1,000
So let's stop the drug that is ending a pandemic. IDIOTS!!!!

I don't see this as having anything to do with politics, rather an overabundance of caution, a move I fully agree with. There's still two vaccines available, better to pause and find out what the hell caused the problems with the J&J vaccine, solve said problems, then resume using it.

Yes I'd much rather see caution. The stats are against any of the Jannsen people having anything go wrong, but there really is no such thing as "acceptable losses" here. Thats the same kind of attitude that people had about COVID and all that herd immunity BS where nobody masks up or changes anything and we just let the fittest survive.
Every day is a gift, not a given right.
I don't see it as a need for caution so much as a need to respond to the perception of a danger. Statistically speaking there's negligible risk, but given the fear of the vaccine among the half of the population for whom even something as simple as wearing masks was a politically charged issue I get that the Biden Administration wants to alleviate fears. Even if it's not necessary, it looks like they're taking a step to "protect" people and that ultimately will result in more people taking the vaccine than might have otherwise, which is a better outcome than allowing rumors/anti-vax propaganda to fester and generally make the country less safe.
It's official! I've secured an appointment to get my shot! Tuesday, 2:40 pm, and I'll be getting the Pfizer vaccine! Man, I'm excited!
