Panamanians living in New York, United States, are being invited to get the Jhonson & Jhonson vaccine for free, regardless of their immigration status and only for those over 18 years of age.
The Consulate General of Panama in New York together with the Health Corporation and hospitals of New York City are in charge of organizing the vaccination day
Immunization will take place May 15-16, 2021, at 2294 Bedford Ave. Brooklyn, NY. Those interested can send an email to [email protected] or a WhatsApp message at 347-224-7479 with their name, e-mail, NY address, telephone number and the phrase “vaccination”.
The Johnson & Johnson vaccine uses an attenuated virus that has no action. Through a single dose, it can produce the antibodies not only at the upper respiratory extract level, but also the lower one that is needed for protection against the virus, reported Janssen medical manager Tatiana Deschamps.
In April, the United States Government authorized the resumption “immediately” of the use of the vaccine by Janssen, the Belgian subsidiary of Johnson & Johnson (J&J), after its administration was practically suspended for ten days due to several cases of thrombosis in women.
“We have concluded that the known and potential benefits of the (Johnson & Johnson) COVID-19 vaccine outweigh its known and potential risks in people 18 years of age and older. We are confident that this vaccine continues to meet our standards for safety, efficacy, and quality, “said FDA Acting Director Janet Woodcock.
