Johnson & Johnson reports that a booster dose of its one-shot Covid vaccine generates a big spike in antibodies to fight infection

Booster doses of Johnson & Johnson's one-shot coronavirus vaccine generated a big spike in antibodies, the frontline immune system defenses against infection, the company reported Wednesday.

People who received a booster six to eight months after their initial J&J shots saw antibodies increase nine-fold higher than 28 days after the first shot, Johnson & Johnson said.The data comes from two Phase 2 studies conducted in the United States and Europe, the company said in a statement. Some of the 2,000 or so people in the studies got booster doses six months after their first doses of J&J's Janssen vaccine.

Federal health officials have said they believe a booster dose of the Janssen vaccine will be needed at some point."I'm quite certain that the FDA, CDC, NIH, White House will use these data to likely justify or recommend a booster for J&J-vaccinated people, probably with a second shot of J&J," Barouch said.

We have to live with covid, it’s not going away

rare JnJ W

What are you doing/taking to prevent getting Covid aside from getting vaccinated?

That’s good news will get there by and by …

J&J vaccine is a good vaccine, I got it month ago in Afghanistan it's so useful vaccine ,I felling better.

Not a 'one-shot' anymore..

So let me get this right, the first and second shot breaks our immune system down, and the 3rs shot boosts it back up? At this point they don’t know what they’re doing

You know about 99% ppl survive so how about you just stay/ or get healthy and keep your immune system up. Unless you’re like old or other things happening then maybe you should try the vaccine.

Of course they do... I literally read a report today that says there is NO evidence of the efficacy of any jab for booster and immunity claims. I'll trust the science thanks.

Yes, it was a 'one dose vaccine', but aaaanyway...and the second, and the third, and the fourth, and the...

The vaccine marketing war continues. unethical

The moment your one shot vaccine is no longer a one shot vaccine lol!

...and a big spike in J&J profits. Funny that.

Since the trials are confidential so we will never know but I am curious to know how many that were in the trial for this booster had an autoimmune disease? Oh right, no data.

A vaccine so good you need a 💉every six months🤦‍♂️

I would love to know the comparison between J&J and AZ.

I’m getting it!

The year is 2025…

Good news. Glad I got the first and will gladly take the second. I sure wish people would shut up and take the jab.

What if you already have the antibodies?

'Neither of the studies looked at real-world efficacy, so the company has not demonstrated that people who get boosters will be less likely to become infected or to develop severe disease. But researchers are beginning to agree that antibody levels do indicate immune protection.'

RubinReport got kicked off twitter for talking about boosters a month ago. why?

J&J's own news release claims study found immunity had remained stable after 8 months from 1st shot and that 2nd shot immune response was 9x greater than first. So, what is purpose for 2nd? Is triggering immune system in this way necessary? (Please don't eat me--I am vaccinated.)

Yeah, big spike alright.... as in spike proteins?😑

Research says it's not strong against COVID-19 Delta Variant. But hey Protection is Protection.

Yeah because Johnson & Johnson is a trustworthy company

Man when could Johnson & Johnson ever be trusted

It is the time to make money Johnson &Johnson ...i give up.

*snores*

الناس هتـــنطــــرد وهتـــنام فى الشارع

Richiamo Quindi, alla fine, non è a dose unica

Ahem ...

There you go ..

Bloomberg reports: Vaccinated people may be more vulnerable to serious illness from the Covid delta variant than previously thought. Anecdotes tell us what the data can’t: Vaccinated people appear to be getting the coronavirus at a surprisingly high ..

suuuuuuuuure it does

No shit. It’s a flu shot. Stop calling it a vaccine.

From a company where a lot of their products causes cancer. NO THANK YOU.

Just mix me up a cocktail of all of them. I’ll just beer bong um

I don’t believe anything anymore

Please help me! My name is Lin donglong, an employee of China telecom fuzhou branch. Company manager huang fei (communist party of China) organized the leadership of the gang of evil forces brutal persecution: surveillance location, insult,abuse, framed to take nude photos of me

I wonder if I’ll need a booster of horse de-wormer or aquarium cleaner at some point?

ilseangu empaca tus cosas

Says the company that knowingly sold carcinogenic baby powder for years...trust them I dont

It will never end

The company is engaging with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ( FDA), U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention .( CDC) , European Medicines Agency ( EMA) and other health authorities regarding boosting with the Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine .

Just one more hit

Their 5G microchip must be malfunctioning scamdemic

And all we can ask: is it true? The push for profits over anything and recent “brand damaging” information about the J&J vaccine has put the marketing machines in over drive. We know this routine from big Pharma. The public is rightfully wary.

You need to be worry when neither the vaccine companies, the government entities imposing the mandates, nor the employers themselves will be held responsible in any way if the worst happens to you after the jab.

Johnson & Johnson continues to diligently generate and evaluate data from ongoing trials as well as emerging real- world evidence .
