US agencies call for pause in Johnson & Johnson vaccine

People keep repeating this myth of birth control. I don't know how doctors do their job in other countries but if they look at the patients health history this number is a myth. Luckily health officials here (ETA: Denmark) inform about these myths on television whenever the government holds a press conference about new Covid-19 measures but this isn't so everywhere so please stop spreading FUD.

ETA: I see you made ninja edits to your comment....

Edit 2: So now you replied that you only added a word or two and then deleted you comment while I were replying. Your comment was only half as long when I replied (all the Twitter stuff wasn't there for example).

Keeping on the myth of birth control...

> A joint statement from the FDA and CDC clarified that the blood clotting was cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST).

I don’t believe birth control is associated with CVST at a rate of 1/1000. It feels very misleading to use it as a point of comparison.

Yes, I realized I'd edited to add the quote. Retracted my comment.
