@BrianLehrer when a caller this AM drew a parallel betw weighing risks of oral contraceptives and weighing risks of J&J, this is the info she was looking for
For perspective, here are some numbers:
1 in 1,000,000: J&J vaccine
1 in 3,000: oral contraceptives
1 in 5: hospitalized COVID-19 patients
As someone who got the J&J vaccine 8 days ago, and who took oral contraceptives for 20 years, Iโll take these odds.
@BrianLehrer the city wants to expand eligibility for vaccines while it still hasnโt reached so many of the most vulnerable. My 101yo grandmother in assisted living in BK isnโt scheduled to receive vax until feb 8. Priority should be to finish reaching everyone in her boat!
