The pause in the JNJ vaccine is coming from nothing more than an over abundance of caution. The condition that has been reported to the database had not been associated with the vaccine. The issue, Cerebral venous thrombosis, while rare, only affected relatively young women. That is also the cohort that is in general more likely to get cerebral venous thrombosis due to their high hormonal state at those ages. From a statistical standpoint, the odds that this is coincidence rather than causation are extremely high. But it would be irresponsible to not pause just in case
