On April 25th 2021, we collaborated with Gurudwara Singh Savha of Washington along with Health Point and Public Health Seattle & King County. We were honored to be part of event hosted by Gurudwara this weekend in their Renton location.

One of our community members getting Pfizer vaccination.

The main goal of the event was to get as many people as possible to get their first dose of Coronavirus vaccine. The place was very organized and there were lots of volunteer making the process as smooth as possible for people who signed up to get their vaccines. We were able to reschedule many people for their second dose as well. We were really happy to see younger generation taking advantage of this opportunities sooner.

Our volunteers were available to help with translation and data collection.

We had about 55 people who came by just from our community. We continue to spread the words through social media and word of mouth. As a volunteer we were able to help not just our community but also be able to help other community as well. All of the volunteer did an amazing job, and all of our end goals was to get as many people vaccinated as possible and end this pandemic together.

अस्थायी रुपमा रोकिएको J & J खोप प्रयोगमा उठेका प्रश्नहरु
April 13, 2021
तयारीकर्ता: जुली ग्रउट, स्वास्थ्य विभाग

किन J & J खोप रोकिएको छ ?

  • Tuesday, April 13th का दिन अमेरीकाको औषधी तथा स्वास्थ्य विभाग र रोग नियन्त्रण तथा रोकथाम संस्थानले जारी गरेको सूचना अनुसार J & J खोप लगाएका ६ जना व्यक्तिहरुमा दुर्लभ तर अत्यन्त जोखिमपुर्ण मस्तिष्कमा रहेको नशामा रगत जम्ने (Cerebral Venous Sinus Thrmobosis, CVST) जस्तो प्रतिकिर्या देखापरेको छ ।
  • सवै बिरामिहरु ५० वर्षमुनिका महिलाहरु छन् ।
  • अहिले धेरै सजकता अपनाउनको निम्ति खोप रोकिएको छ ।

J & J खोपका लागि वासिङटन राज्यले के गरिरहेको छ ?

  • वासिङटन राज्यकोस्वास्थ्य विभागले J & J खोप (जोनसोन & जोनसोन) प्रयोगमा तुरुन्त (4/13/21) रोकेको छ । रोग नियन्त्रण तथा रोकथाम संस्थानको समाचार यो लिङ्कमा लेखिएको छ । https://www.cdc.gov/media/releases/2021/s0413-JJ-vaccine.html
  • सरकारी तहबाट प्रभावकारी तरीकाले अगाडि कसरी जाने भन्ने विषयमा अर्को सुझाव नआएसम्म खोपको प्रयोग रोकिनेछ ।
  • सवै कोभिड १९ खोपबाट सुरछित रहनु मुख्य प्राथमिकता हो ।
  • वासिङटन राज्यमा अहिलेसम्म जम्मा ४ लाखमा लगभग १६०,००० J & J खोपको मात्रा परिचालन भइसकेको छ ।
  • अहिलेसम्म हामिलाई ती ६ जना बिरामीहरु जसले मस्तिष्कको समस्या भोगे उनीहरु वासिङटन राज्यका वासिन्दाहरु हुन् भन्ने विषयमा जानकारी छैन ।

के मलाई J & J खोपका कारण शरीरको कुनै अङ्गमा रगत जम्ने हुन्छ ?

  • देशभरी जम्मा ६८ लाख J & J खोपको मात्रा परिचालन भइसकेको छ र त्यसमा केवल ६ जना मानिसलाई यो असर देखापरेको छ । दुर्भाग्यवश हुन गएको शरीरको कुनै अंगमा रगत जम्ने जस्ता समस्याले पारेको यो प्रतिकूल समयमा याद गर्नुपर्ने कुरा यो जम्मा प्रतिशतको केहि भाग मात्र हो जसले गम्भिर असर देखापर्ने दुर्लभ देखाएको छ ।
  • तुलना गर्दा जस्तो:
  • ३६६ मानिसहरुमा १ जनाको १००० माइलको दुरी तय गर्दा कार दुर्घटना हुनेछ । (स्रोत: डा. लिन्डक्विसट समाचार उपलब्धता 4/13)
  • १०,००० मानिसहरुमा १ जनामा कुनैपनि लोकप्रीय antibiotics को असर हुनेछ । (स्रोत: डा. लिन्डक्विसट समाचार उपलब्धता 4/13)
  • एकदमै कम १ लाख मानिसहरुमा १ जनामा J & J खोपबाट शरीरको कुनै अंगमा रगत जम्ने हुनेछ ।

यदि मैले J & J खोप लगाए भने के हुन्छ ?

  • मानिसहरु जसले J & J खोप लगाएका छन् यदि उनिहरुमा खोप लगाएको तीन हप्ताभित्र एकदमै टाउको, पेट, खुट्टा दुख्ने अथवा सास फेर्न गार्हो हुनेजस्ता भएमा आफ्नो डाक्टर अथवा स्वास्थ्य संस्थासंग सम्पर्क गर्नुपर्छ ।
  • डाक्टर अथवा स्वास्थ्य संस्थाबाट यस्तो घटनाबारे अभिलेख राख्नका निम्ति प्रतिकूल खोप घटनाको रेकर्ड सिस्टम लिंकमा जानुपर्ने हुन्छ । https://vaers.hhs.gov/reportevent.html

J & J खोपका लागि नाम टिपाइसकेका मानिसहरुले के गर्ने ?

  • यदि स्वास्थ्य संस्थाबाट J & J खोपका लागि नाम टिपाइसकेको अवस्थामा ती स्वास्थ्य संस्थाले अब के गर्ने भन्ने विषयमा आफ्नो निजी स्रोतबाट जानकारीसहित तपाइलाई सुझाव दिनेछन् ।
  • स्वास्थ्य विभागले J & J खोपको मात्रा पहिले नै कम गराएको थियो ।
  • ३.७ लाखमा १३ हजार मात्र J & J खोपको मात्रा हुने अनुमान गरिएको छ ।
  • वासिङटन राज्यमा प्राप्त जम्मा खोपमा ६ प्रतिशत J & J को खोप रहेको छ ।
  • J & J खोपको आपुर्तीमा सिमितता भएकोले यसको असर न्यून देखिएको छ ।
  • हामी बुझ्द्छौकि यस किसिमको खोप प्रयोगमा रद्द तथा रोक लगाउदा असुविधा उत्पन्न हुन्छ तर अहिलेको समयमा खोपबारे कुनै सूचना नआएसम्म यहि कदम चाल्नु उपयुत्त हुन्छ ।

यदि तपाइलाई यसको असर देखापर्यो भने:

  • खोप लगाएको तिन हप्ताभित्रमा यदि तपाइहरुलाई तलको कुनै समस्या देखापरेमा आफ्नो डाक्टर अथवा स्वास्थ्य संस्थासंग सम्पर्क गर्नुहोस्:
  • एकदमै टाउको दुख्ने
  • पेट दुख्ने
  • खुट्टा दुख्ने
  • सास फेर्न गार्हो हुने

के कारणले शरीरको कुनै अंगमा रगत जम्ने हुन्छ ?

  • तेस्तो कुनै अहिलेसम्म निर्धारित कारण छैन तर औषधी तथा स्वास्थ्य विभागका अनुसार खोप लगाइसकेपछि हरेक व्यत्तिको रोग प्रतिरोधात्मक शक्तिमा यो भर पर्नेगर्छ ।
  • डा. स्कट लिन्डक्विसट, एक्टिङ स्टेट हेल्थ अफिसरका अनुसार ६ जनामा देखापरेको शरीरको कुनै अंगमा रगत जम्ने समस्या J & J खोपसंग सम्वन्धित छन् तर खोपकै कारणले भएको भने होइन ।

सवै J & J खोपका तथ्याङ्क (मिसेल रोबर्टबाट 4/12/21 सम्म)

  • वासिङटन राज्यमा ३२०,००० प्राप्त भएको छ । (राज्य र अन्य सरकारी स्थानहरुमा)
  • त्यसको २२५,००० हाम्रो राज्यमा दिइएको छ ।
  • April 11, 2021 सम्म आइपुग्दा १६०,००० परिचालन भएको इन्टरनेट साइट (IIS) मा रेकर्ड गरिएको छ ।
  • वासिङटनमा ६५० सुविधा समुहले J & J खोप परिचालन गरेका छन् ।
  • केहि दिन यता परिचालन गरिएका अन्य मात्राहरुसंगै प्राप्त भएका अरु तथ्याङ्कहरुका कारण अहिलेको यो तथ्याङ्क फेरबदल हुनेछ ।

प्राप्त नभइसकेका J & J खोपका मात्राहरु अब के हुन्छ ?

  • स्वास्थ्य विभागका अनुसार प्राप्त नभएका मात्राहरु डाक्टर अथवा स्वास्थ्य संस्थालाई अहिले रोक्न भनिएको छ ।

हामि अहिले डाक्टर अथवा स्वास्थ्य संस्थालाई के भनिरहेका छौ ?

  •  अर्को मुल्यांकन नभएसम्म सवै J & J खोपमा रोक लगाइएको छ ।

We understand that there are many questions regarding the COVID vaccines. We highly encourage people who are qualified to get COVID vaccines to make an appointment and get the vaccine. The more we get vaccinated, the better will be our chance to recover from this pandemic and return to our normal life.

FAQ’S FOR TEMPORARY PAUSE ON J&J VACCINE USE April 13, 2021
Prepared by Julie Grauert, Department of Health

_________________________________________________________________

WHY ARE J&J VACCINES BEING PAUSED?

On Tuesday, April 13th, the FDA/CDC announced a rare but serious side effect including serious brain blood clots (CVST) combined with low platelet counts in six patients who received J&J vaccines.

  • All patients are women under 50 years of age.
  • Vaccines are being paused out of an abundance of caution.

WHAT IS WA STATE DOING ABOUT J&J VACCINES?

• The Washington State Department of Health will pause the use of the Johnson & Johnson (J & J) vaccine statewide starting immediately (4/13/21), following the guidance of the FDA/CDC.
• Use of that vaccine will be put on hold until we receive further recommendations from our federal partners about how best to move forward.Safety is the highest priority when it comes to all COVID-19 vaccines.

About 160,000 doses of J & J vaccine have been administered in Washington so far, out of more than four million doses total.

• At this time, we are not aware that any of the six patients who experienced these blood clots were Washington residents.

WILL J&J CAUSE ME TO HAVE A BLOOD CLOT?

• •

While adverse events such as blood clots are very unfortunate, it is important to remember that out of

6.8 million J & J vaccines administered nationwide, only six people are known to have experienced this side

effect.

That is a fraction of a percent, which shows us that this side effect, while serious, is extremely rare.

• For comparison:

o 1 in 366 people will have a car accident during a 1000 mile trip (Source: Dr. Lindquist in media availability on 4/13)
o 1 in 10,000 people will have side effects to popular antibiotics (Source: Dr. Lindquist in media availability on 4/13)

o Fewer than 1 in 1 million people will develop a blood clot from J&J vaccine.

WHAT HAPPENS IF I RECEIVED THE J&J VACCINE?

• People who have received the J&J vaccine who develop severe headache, abdominal pain, leg pain, or shortness of breath within three weeks after vaccination should contact their health care provider.
• Health care providers are asked to report adverse events to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System at https://vaers.hhs.gov/reportevent.html.

WHAT PEOPLE WITH J&J APPOINTMENTS SHOULD DO:

• If you have an appointment with a clinic that was scheduling the J&J vaccine, those clinics will be putting information out on their own channels to advise you of next steps.
• DOH was already seeing low dose allocation of J&J vaccine.

o Anticipated only 13k of 370k expected doses to be J&J.
o J&J is only 6% of the total vaccine received by Washington State.

  • Because J&J was already in limited supply, pausing J&J vaccines should have minimal effect.
  • We acknowledge that any cancelations or rescheduling due to the pause is an inconvenience and disruption, but it’s the right thing to do until we get more information on the vaccine.

IF YOU THINK YOU ARE HAVING SIDE EFFECTS:

• Contact your health care provider if you are having the following symptoms within 3 weeks of receiving vaccine:

o Severe headache
o Abdominal pain
o Leg Pain
o Shortness of breath

WHAT IS CAUSING THE BLOOD CLOTS

• No definitive cause has been identified yet, but the FDA says that a that a probable cause is a rare immune response generated by an individual after receiving the vaccine.
• Dr. Scott Lindquist, Acting State Health Officer, says that the 6 reported blood clots with J&J are associated with vaccine, however they not caused by the vaccine.

OVERALL J&J DATA (From Michele Roberts, as of 4/12/21)

• 320,000 J&J delivered in WA (state and federal allocations) o 225,000 of that is from our state allocation

  • As of April 11, 2021: 160,000 administered and reported to the IIS as of 4/11
  • 650 facilities have administered or been allocated J&J vaccine in WA
  • These numbers will continue to change as more administration data comes in from last few days and doses continued to be delivered.

WHAT HAPPENS TO UNDELIVERED J&J DOSES?

• DOH is directing providers to hold onto undelivered doses for now.

WHAT WE’RE TELLING PROVIDERS TO DO

• Discontinue all use of J&J until further review.
