Third COVID-19 vaccine receives emergency use authorization

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration on Saturday issued an emergency use authorization for the Johnson and Johnson COVID-19 vaccine.

Johnson and Johnson’s Janssen vaccine is the third one that received an EUA from the FDA. The other two are the Pfizer and Moderna COVID-19 vaccines. The main differences between the new vaccine and the others are that the new vaccine requires only one shot, and it is an adenovirus-based vaccine, not an MRNA vaccine.

The EUA will allow the new vaccine to be distributed in the United States to individuals 18 years old and older, according to the FDA.

“The authorization of this vaccine expands the availability of vaccines, the best medical prevention method for COVID-19, to help us in the fight against this pandemic, which has claimed over half a million lives in the United States,” said Dr. Janet Woodcock, acting FDA commissioner, said in a news release. “The FDA, through our open and transparent scientific review process, has now authorized three COVID-19 vaccines with the urgency called for during this pandemic, using the agency’s rigorous standards for safety, effectiveness and manufacturing quality needed to support emergency use authorization.”

According to the FDA, the available data shows evidence that the new vaccine may be effective in preventing COVID-19. According to the FDA, the vaccine’s benefits outweigh its known and potential risks.

“In making this determination, the FDA can assure the public and medical community that it has conducted a thorough evaluation of the available safety, effectiveness and manufacturing quality information,” the FDA stated in the news release.

The Janssen COVID-19 vaccine uses the adenovirus type 26 to deliver a piece of the DNA that is used to make the distinctive spike protein of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, according to the FDA.

While adenoviruses are a group of viruses that are relatively common, Ad26, which can cause cold symptoms and pink eye, was modified for the vaccine so that it cannot replicate in the body to cause illness, the FDA stated.

The body temporarily makes the spike protein after receiving the vaccine, but it doesn’t cause disease, the FDA stated. Instead, the vaccine triggers the immune system to learn to react defensively, producing an immune response against SARS-CoV-2, according to the FDA.

“After a thorough analysis of the data, the FDA’s scientists and physicians have determined that the vaccine meets the FDA’s expectations for safety and effectiveness appropriate for the authorization of a vaccine for emergency use,” Dr. Peter Marks, director of the FDA’s Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research, said. “With today’s authorization, we are adding another vaccine in our medical toolbox to fight this virus. At the same time, the American people can be assured of the FDA’s unwavering commitment to public health through our comprehensive and rigorous evaluation of the data submitted for vaccines to prevent COVID-19.”

In a randomized study, the vaccine was found to be about 67 percent effective in preventing moderate to severe – critical COVID-19 occurring at least 14 days after vaccination, and 66 percent effective in preventing moderate to severe – critical COVID-19 at least 28 days after vaccination, according to the FDA.
The vaccine also was about 77 percent effective in preventing severe – critical COVID-19 occurring at least 14 days after vaccination, and 85 percent effective in preventing severe – critical COVID-19 occurring at least 28 days after vaccination, the FDA stated.

The study participants included 39,321 participants in the United States, South Africa, South America and Mexico. Receiving the vaccine in the study were 19,630 persons, while the other 19,691 persons received a saline placebo, according to the FDA.

Side effects of the new vaccine most commonly were mild to moderate, and included pain at the injection side, headache, fatigue, muscle aches and nausea, according to the FDA. Most side effects lasted one to two days.

Gov. Laura Kelly said in a conference call Friday that she expected the new vaccine doses to be shipped to Kansas soon, possibly even a few days after the EUA approval.

New sports order issued in Wyandotte County

The Unified Government Health Department has issued a new health order on school sports.

The order rescinds a Sept. 4 order prohibiting contact athletic activity and replaces it with a new order. The new order applies to school sports, including school and college sports, as well as club and league sports.

According to the new order, the June 26 and Nov. 20 orders will remain in full effect. They will require strict masking and 6-foot social distancing at sports for all players, coaches, staff and spectators while on the sidelines, in locker rooms, in the gym, in the stands, while practicing and when not in actual competition.

Players can take off their masks to engage in sports competition or practice, according to the health order. However, they must wear the mask at all other times, including on the sidelines, in the locker room, in meetings and any time when they’re not on the field or court.

Coaches, trainers, scorekeepers, referees, fans and all others watching the sports are not exempt from the June 27 order and must wear masks at all times, according to the order.

The health order also says it is highly recommended that everyone participating in sporting events wear a high-quality mask in accordance with CDC recommendations.

There are some more requirements, however, if players take off their masks during competition and practices. College and high school players, their coaches and staffs ust test negative on PCR tests once a week and provide results to their team coach or sponsor. The coaches or sponsors must maintain the information and provide it to the Health Department staff or organizational leadership if requested.

The testing rule does not apply to club, recreational and informal sports, but it is highly recommended, according to the health order.

Players who have COVID-19 symptoms must notify their coach immediately and are not permitted to attend practice or play. They should isolate for the duration of their symptoms and shoud be tested for OVID-19 immediately, according to the order. If they are positive, they must follow standard county isolation requiremetns.

If a player tests positive for COVID-19, the program must notify the UG Health Department immediately. Then the team would have to quarantine all team members and others with close contact for 14 days from the first day the positive player would have been considered contagious, according to the health order. All of the persons quarantining would have to be tested for COVID-19 from seven to nine days after the first day of potential exposure. The team’s coach or organizer must cooperate with contact tracing by the UG Health Department.

The new health order also stated it is highly recommended that players and coaches and staff traveling to Wyandotte County for college or high school sports competitions or practices have a negative PCR COVID-19 test 72 hours before the game or practice, the health order stated.

Anyone on the other teams who has symptoms are not permitted to travel to Wyandotte County with their team, according to the order. Also, players traveling to Wyandotte County for competition should not have any contact with the Wyandotte County team when not actively engaging in the competition, according to the health order.

In addition, the new health order amends the Jan. 4 order on singing, choir or band activity.

The order stated that it is strongly recommended that all indoor singing, chir or band activity involving brass or woodwind instruments remain suspended at this time. However, these activities will be permitted if certain rules are followed.

High school students, college students, teachers and conductors who participate in a school-sanctioned singing, choir or band practice or performance are required to have a negative PCR COVID-19 test weekly.

Those in outdoor singing with any organization or school are required to wear masks at all times.

Masks must be worn while playing all instruments that allow for masking, such as drums or string instruments.

Eight feet of social distancing is required between all participants at all times.

It’s recommended that all instrument covers that reduce risk of salivary aerosolization should be used at all times.

Participants in these activities from all other grade levels and organizations are recommended to have a negative PCR COVID-19 test weekly.

If a band or choir member tests positive for COVID-19, the director or organizer must cooperate with contact tracing efforts of the UG Health Department, according to the order.

The order went into effect on Feb. 26. According to the health order, the penalties for violation of the order are the same as the other health orders, a misdemeanor with a $500 maximum fine and potentially 30 days in jail.

New COVID-19 vaccine moves closer to emergency use authorization

Kansas expects to receive doses of the new Johnson and Johnson COVID-19 vaccine soon, Gov. Laura Kelly told local elected officials on Friday.

Gov. Kelly said it was possible to have close to 25,000 doses of Johnson and Johnson’s vaccine coming to Kansas next week, in addition to more Moderna and Pfizer doses. Johnson and Johnson’s Janssen COVID-19 vaccine moved closer to emergency use authorization from the FDA on Friday after a favorable report.

The new vaccine is much easier to store and requires only one dose, Gov. Kelly added. They will be able to deploy it much more efficiently and open up to a wider swath of Kansans, she said.

She said they are working on where distribution will occur, taking into consideration where the one-dose approach would make the most sense. She added distribution would be targeted across the state.

She made her remarks during a conference call with local leaders throughout the state.

“Following today’s positive advisory committee meeting outcome regarding the Janssen Biotech Inc. COVID-19 Vaccine, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has informed the sponsor that it will rapidly work toward finalization and issuance of an emergency use authorization,” the FDA stated in a news release on Friday (https://www.fda.gov/news-events/press-announcements/fda-statement-vaccines-and-related-biological-products-advisory-committee-meeting-1).

Dr. Lee Norman, Kansas secretary of health, said preliminary data about the Johnson and Johnson vaccine suggested 66 percent effectiveness in preventing the COVID-19 illness. Some of the other earlier COVID-19 vaccines had high effectiveness rates after two doses.

When discussing the flu vaccine, he said many vaccines are in the 30 to 40 percent effectiveness range, and a blockbuster would be 70 percent. The polio vaccine was 80 percent or less effective and led to near global eradication of the disease, he added.

People getting the Johnson and Johnson vaccine, if they contract the illness, are not likely to have serious illness, are less likely to be hospitalized and should not die, Dr. Norman said. “That is not trivial,” he added.

The Johnson and Johnson vaccine is not a MRNA vaccine, he said, but is a more traditional vaccine, made similar to other existing vaccines.

“I think people will want to get it now,” Dr. Norman said. The benefits of getting it now, if it is available, outweigh waiting until some point in the future, he said.

Dr. Norman told the local leaders that the weather caused a delay in vaccine shipments last week as people who work in the plants couldn’t get to work. The state was told that they will get the shipments, and it appears that is being done, he said.

The KDHE’s vaccine weekly report stated that next week, the state is projected to get 32,760 Pfizer first doses, 22,230 Pfizer second doses; 27,800 Moderna first doses, and 25,700 Moderna second doses. The state is still in Phase 2 of the vaccination program. The KDHE determines how much vaccine is sent to each local health department, and the health departments determine which groups within Phase 2 will go first, within the state’s guidelines.

According to the KDHE vaccine report, some rural counties were receiving a higher rate per capita than some urban counties. To make distribution more equitable, the state will decrease the number of counties receiving vaccine, with some counties receiving it every other week. This could affect about 30 counties.

In other vaccine news, Dr. Norman said the FDA announced Thursday that the Pfizer vaccine, which has been held at very cold temperatures, could be stored at conventional temperatures found in pharmacy freezers for two weeks. It’s a big deal, he said, because that makes the vaccine easier to manage, with less risk of spoilage and very little waste.

He said the KDHE should get enough vaccine to meet its goal of vaccinating kindergarten through 12th grade teachers in a week or so from now.

Case numbers, hospitalizations and deaths are declining in Kansas, he said. Many hospitals in the state have just a handful of COVID-19 patients now, he said.

Major Gen. David Weishaar, adjutant general of Kansas, of the Kansas Emergency Management Division, reported that Kansas has 54 active National Guard members working across the state, and the number will increase next week as vaccination teams are added. The National Guard members should help reduce the strain on the local communities. It will potentially increase the medical capacity of some counties, he said.

UG Health Department begins information outreach campaign on vaccines

The Unified Government Health Department has begun an informational outreach campaign about vaccines, according to an announcement Friday.

The UG has some new public service announcement that it will air, encouraging people to visit their new vaccine page, www.WyCoVaccines.org. The spots will begin on March 1.

“These public service announcements are a key part of our communications outreach to Wyandotte County residents, to encourage them to get the facts about COVID-19 vaccines,” said Juliann Van Liew, director of the Unified Government Public Health Department, in a news release. “We understand that there is a lot of misinformation out there about the vaccines, and we want to help people get the facts, not the rumors. Through this campaign, our website, our community partnerships, and our other communications and outreach efforts, we aim to dispel myths and provide information to help folks make the most informed decision possible about getting the vaccine.”

The public service announcements are in English and Spanish, at 15-second and 30-second lengths.

The spots feature Wyandotte County area workers and residents, including a teacher, local business owners, a faith leader, a transit employee, a grocery store worker, a bartender and a health care worker.

The public service announcements can be seen at https://wdrv.it/3e3cf7c60.

COVID-19 survivor urges people to wear masks, get vaccines

Michelle DeMartino, a sign language interpreter, was fighting back tears on Thursday as she described losing both her father and her mother to COVID-19, within days of each other.

DeMartino said she was trying her best to continue her faith and educate people on the importance of vaccinations and masking. She spoke at the Thursday morning news conference at the University of Kansas Health System.

Her mother died Feb. 4 at age 66, and her father died Feb. 9 at age 69. Her father had had terminal cancer since 2009 and had been a resident of an assisted living home to help with his care for Alzheimer’s, according to Michelle. While there, he contracted COVID-19. Her mother, who had no pre-existing conditions, got COVID-19 before Christmas, and then developed pneumonia and was admitted to the hospital.

Although Michelle had been following the rules and wearing masks, most of their family developed COVID-19.

The tragedy, Michelle said, brought her family closer together, and they were able to lean on each other. KU Health System and the staff became her immediate family, too, she said.

“It’s affected us, but we realize life is too short,” Michelle said. “The whole family is trying to spread the word, how important it is to mask and get the vaccine.”

There are over 500,000 deaths in the United States from COVID-19, she said, and two of them are her parents. That’s 98 million too many COVID-19 cases and over 500,000 too many deaths, she added.

Michelle said people should just do their part, be united and come together in fighting the virus.

Greg Nawalanic, a psychologist, said people can cope with loss by finding meaning. Michelle said she came to see that the death, in the end, gave her parents peace.

By speaking out about the importance of wearing masks and getting vaccinations, Michelle was taking on purpose, having a drive and mission to carry on her parents’ legacy, he said.

Losing a loved one, he said, is like holding up a mirror. Life can seem fleeting and tomorrow is not a guarantee, he said. People ask themselves if they are living actively, doing everything they can, or passively letting life steer them.

Living a better, more purposeful life, is the best gift you can give loved ones who have died and also yourself, he said.

It used to be that people were told to let it go after a person died, but that has changed, he said. Now people are encouraged to maintain and modify the relationship they had with the loved one who died. Carrying her mother’s rosary with her, Michelle feels that her mother is still with her, he said.

“Death ends a life, not a relationship,” he said. “It’s important to keep that connection.”

The illnesses and deaths came out of nowhere for Michelle and just devastated her life, he said. It was upsetting because Michelle was someone who took COVID-19 seriously, he added. “Even for folks who take it seriously, it can creep up and snakebite you,” he said.

Michelle was doing everything right, wearing masks and socially distancing from her parents. They were communicating online.

Michelle advised people to wear a mask when they visit their parents, as it could prevent illness.

Nawalanic said many people are tired of masking and distancing and want to stop it, but if they stay diligent, continue to wear masks, distance and get their vaccinations, they will be rewarded.

COVID-19 case numbers reported

Doctors at KU Health System reported a decrease in COVID-19 patients on Thursday morning.
