JACKSONVILLE. Fla. — A man has now developed a blood clot after receiving the Johnson & Johnson vaccine. It is the first known case involving a man in the United States.
The report came from the University of California San Francisco after an 11-day pause for the J&J vaccine was issued due to fifteen women developing a dangerous blood clot disorder that three died from.

About 8 million people were given the Johnson & Johnson shot making the blood clot disorder extremely rare.
There is now a new warning for women under the age of 50 for the J&J vaccine.
The Gateway Mall vaccination site saw a low turnout of J&J and first dose Pfizer shots Sunday and Monday.
