COVID-19: Vaccine

Important information

As of April 13, 2021, Wisconsin providers have paused giving the Johnson & Johnson (Janssen) COVID-19 vaccine. We have paused giving it because a very small number of people who got it had a very rare side effect – a blood clot.

I received the Johnson & Johnson (Janssen) vaccine, what do I need to do?

  • Understand that these severe events are incredibly rare. 
  • Monitor for the following symptoms up to three weeks after you vaccination: severe headache, abdominal pain, leg pain, or shortness of breath. Symptoms associated with these severe events have occurred six to 13 days after receiving the vaccine. 
  • If you develop any of these symptoms, contact your health care provider.
  • Use the v-safe program to report your symptoms.
