0:59Now PlayingTwo new cases of blood clots linked to Johnson & Johnson’s Covid-19 vaccine are being investigated by federal health officials, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said Tuesday.
One case was in a male and the other in a female, both of whom were under 60 years old, a CDC spokeswoman said in an email to Bloomberg News. The new reports bring the total number of cases to 17 out of about 8.1 million doses administered in the U.S.
The CDC and the Food and Drug Administration lifted a recommended pause on use of J&J’s vaccine Friday following an investigation into blood clots possibly linked to the shot. The 15 cases it examined before electing to resume dosing were all in women, though CDC officials cautioned that the syndrome may also occur in men.
It’s not clear whether the new cases were among people who were vaccinated before the pause was enacted or since it was lifted on Friday. Investigations of the two new cases are ongoing, the CDC said.
