RE: Why don’t Chicago Catholics as Diocese for permission to take Johnson and Johnson and see what happens.
I don’t understand the question. The USA has given EUA to vaccines from three companies. What makes J&J so special that you would need to ask for permission?
If the Diocese requires vaccination, surely J&J counts.
Probably because the J&J uses aborted fetal tissue in the production phase, not just in testing.
No. Some Bishops have said we can take Pfizer and Moderna, but not J and J because more involved with fetal cells in manufacture.
But, J and J only are one injection and tend to have primarily Blood clots as side effect. The other two are mrna, brand new type of vaccine and totally unknown long term side effects.
BUT! If J and J only vax available can take it.. Confusing huh?
Take the most dangerous ones o.k. The safer one forbidden unless only one available.
And some Bishops and Pope disagree with the above, so what is a Catholic to do?
Ask Cupich.
