Oct. 12 The company pauses its Phase 3 trial to investigate an adverse reaction in a volunteer.
Oct. 23 The trial resumes.
Nov. 16 Johnson & Johnson announces a second Phase 3 trial to observe the effects of two doses of their vaccine, instead of just one.
Dec. 17 Johnson & Johnson announces its Phase 3 trial is fully enrolled, with around 45,000 participants.
January, 2021 Preliminary results from the Phase 3 trial are expected in January. The company is aiming to produce at least a billion doses this year.

March 2 Merck will help manufacture the Johnson & Johnson vaccine.
April A plant in Baltimore run by Emergent BioSolutions ruined 15 million doses of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine.
Side Effects and Adverse Events
In every clinical trial, participants are asked to record any reactions they have after receiving a medication or vaccine. Adverse reactions are considered to be medication reactions directly caused by a vaccine, whereas a side effect is a physical reaction to a medication.
Initial safety information released for the vaccine shows that the most common reactions after the vaccine was administered included:
- Injection site pain, redness, or swelling
- Fatigue
- Headache
- Muscle aches
- Nausea
- Fever
People who are immunocompromised, including those receiving immunosuppressant therapies, may have a diminished immune response to the vaccine, according to the FDA.
Risk of Guillain-Barré Syndrome
On July 13, 2021, the FDA announced another update to the Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine label regarding an observed increased risk of Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) during the 42 days following vaccination.
Although these findings suggest a link between the vaccine and a small increased risk of GBS, the FDA states it is insufficient to establish a causal relationship. While the FDA and CDC monitored cases of the syndrome, they emphasized that the potential benefits of vaccination continue to outweigh this very low risk.
Warning Symptoms
Seek immediate medical attention if you experience any of the following symptoms:
- Weakness or tingling, especially in the legs or arms, that appears to worsen or spread
- Difficulty walking
- Difficulty with facial movements, including speaking, chewing, or swallowing
- Double vision or inability to move the eyes
- Difficulty with bladder control or bowel function
Risk of Thrombosis With Thrombocytopenia
Healthcare providers were also warned that treating a suspected case of this condition (known as thrombosis with thrombocytopenia) with the blood thinner heparin may be harmful and alternative treatments may be needed along with a consultation with hematology specialists.
