Out of an abundance of caution, the CDC and FDA have released a joint statement recommending a pause on the use of Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine.
Therefore, the Marquette University Medical Clinic has canceled our on-campus vaccine clinic previously scheduled for Wednesday, April 14, as the university had received an allocation of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine from the state for that clinic. All scheduled appointments have been canceled and individuals were notified directly.
Additionally, to date, Marquette has not administered the Johnson & Johnson vaccine on campus. The April 14 clinic would have been the first clinic with the Johnson & Johnson vaccine.
The FDA and CDC will be conducting further investigation and more information is expected later this week. If it is deemed safe to restart use of the Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine, the university may provide it during a future on-campus clinic at a later date.
Please watch Marquette Today for announcements regarding on-campus vaccine availability.
