Issue 1,553: March 3, 2021 – Corrected Links to EUA Fact Sheets

The first story in the March 3, 2021, edition of IAC Express contained incorrect links to the EUA Fact Sheets for the Janssen COVID-19 Vaccine, misdirecting readers to a different manufacturer’s EUA Fact Sheets. We apologize for this error and have corrected the links on our website and in the corrected story below.

FDA issues EUA for Janssen COVID-19 Vaccine after advisory committee review

On February 27, the FDA issued an Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) for the Janssen COVID-19 Vaccine (also known as Ad26.COV.2) to help prevent disease caused by SARS-CoV-2 virus in people 18 years of age and older. Janssen is the pharmaceutical division of Johnson & Johnson.

FDA’s action follows the unanimous recommendation of its Vaccines and Related Biological Products Advisory Committee (VRBPAC), which determined on February 26 that the totality of scientific evidence available indicates that the benefits of vaccination with the Janssen COVID-19 Vaccine outweigh the risks for use in people age 18 years or older.

Below appear links to technical and supportive documents related to this vaccine and the EUA. Most relevant to vaccinators are the Fact Sheet for Potential Recipients and Caregivers and the Fact Sheet for Healthcare Providers. That second 23-page document includes the product’s prescribing information.
