TUNIS, May 9 (Xinhua) -- Tunisian Health Ministry decided to suspend using the Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine (Janssen), the official Tunis Afrique Presse reported on Monday.
The Health Minister Ali Mrabet said at a press conference on Monday that Tunisian government made this decision after the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) decided to limit its use due to worrisome complications, including blood clots.
He added that the Health Ministry will ensure the necessary follow-up after an international alert launched by the World Health Organization (WHO) concerning the suspension of using Janssen vaccine.
