The Food and Drug Administration’s decision to approve the one-dose Johnson & Johnson vaccine for emergency use provides the U.S. a third tool to use in the COVID-19 crisis while sparking a debate about who will get the new version instead of the two existing vaccines.
Federal officials expect to ship up to 4 million doses of J&J’s adenovirus-based vaccine in the coming days, bringing the nationwide supply of coronavirus vaccines to roughly 20 million per week.
The J&J shot, approved late Saturday for people 18 and older, will accelerate the campaign by protecting against severe disease with a single dose.
