Johnson & Johnson Covid vaccine: FDA approves single-shot jab

#Johnson&Johnson have had #FDA approval for a single-shot #covid-19 #vaccine - on the face of it, this surely seems a good thing.

However, this is the same Johnson and Johnson that denied that there was #asbestos in their baby powder, before recalling the product - because it contained asbestos.

Further, Johnson and Johnson and #GlaxoSmithKlein apparently take every opportunity they can to work together, including a rheumatoid arthritis drug #trial and a once-monthly #HIV treatment .

This of course is the GlaxoSmithKlein whose #vaccine for #H1N1 has been shown to significantly increase the chances of contracting #narcolepsy in those who have taken it, or in the case of the #children who had the #jab, had it thrust upon them.

GlaxoSmithKlein did extremely well out of all this. The #UK Government bought 90 million doses of the H1N1 vaccine, called #Pandemrix and of course, had no legal liability.

So, I guess, fingers crossed that J&J who have worked extensively with GSK in the past, share none of their #scientific methods, #marketing tactics or #ethical boundaries.
