as well as the food and drug administration won't have a significant impact on the overall vaccination campaign to put it into context the white house saying that the johnson and johnson vaccine made up just 5 percent of the vaccines being administered the majority of vaccines being administered in the united states are made by the drug companies pfizer as well as mcdermott now the white house saying just moments ago that the pfizer and mcdermott doses they have secured enough to administer 300000000 americans shots so they do believe that they will remain on track for the. goal of 200000000 shots administered by 100 days in the by the administration's 1st days in office so there is still a sound of optimism despite this is what is being touted as a setback for the global vaccination effort and also the effort in the united states the concern being that well it is a small number that the effects of the johnson and johnson vaccine that could cause potentially very serious blood clotting disorder in other words what they call a thrombotic event or c.v.s. tina what we know is this is happ

food and drug administration in silver spring. patty this polls of the the johnson and johnson vaccine pretty much where a lot of people's minds just give us a sense of what you know about how the polls has been introduced and what kind of impacts will bond have on the wider u.s. vaccine. well the biden ministration says the johnson and johnson johnson and johnson vaccine was the 3rd vaccine approved it's being used less than the other to the pfizer and they say they've seen no red flags when it comes to those vaccines but this is a really big deal for the world because let's take a step back and remember why people were so excited about the johnson and johnson vaccine it's cheaper to make it doesn't have to be refrigerated and you can get it in just one dose and you're believed to have some immunity after just 2 weeks so this was really what the world was counting on so this actually is a pretty big deal but there are critics they say look 6800000 people in the u.s. have got the shot just 6 women have developed these blood clots n

the food and drug administration will require a warning to be given along with these shots noting the existence of possible side effects johnson and johnson says that they support that possibility and they are working with the government on possible language the expert panel at the centers for disease control voted 10 to 4 in favor of approving the resumption of the change a vaccine with one abstention and as you noted they said that although the risks are real the benefits of widespread use of this very important vaccine different from the other vaccines that are in wide use is something that outweighs those risks the benefits outweigh the risks and why is that why do they say that wrong why does this vaccine feel unimportant among the available maxine's out there right now. well if you recall the. pfizer and the moderna vaccines they they both require 2 injections spaced. several weeks apart in addition especially the pfizer vaccine has to be kept at extremely low temperature if it thaws out and the time expires it's no good anymore so johnson and johnson is one shot only and it doe

unfortunately, the food and drug administration's foreign drug inspections program has failed to keep up. as our witnesses will testify today, gao has studied fda's oversight of the global pharmaceutical supply chain since 1998, and the results are not good. gao has included the fda onity high-risk series since 2009. one of the main problems is that fda gives drug manufacturers, as has been stated, but not american ones, advanced notice of inspections. 12 weeks of advanced notice, allowing foreign manufacturers to fabricate or shred data, use hidden laboratories or secretly repeat tests before the fda inspectors arrived. by contrast, an unannounced inspections, investigators have found issues that plants were unable to hide, important manufacturing records tossed in a trash bin, bird and insect infestations, even human urine puddled on the floor. clearly, that is not a safe or sterile manufacturing area. these shoddy practices result in drugs with unapproved ingredients, toxic impurities and dangerous particulates making their way into american medicine cabinets. in 2007-2008, hundred
