Statement from Chester County Health Department - April 13, 2021
Following guidance from federal and state health agencies, the Chester County Health Department is pausing the administration of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine out of an abundance of caution.
Our clinic at the Brandywine YMCA in Coatesville and the evening clinic at the Government Services Center in West Chester are the only clinics administering the Johnson & Johnson vaccine today (April 13, 2021).
Those sites have transitioned to administering the Moderna vaccine for today (April 13, 2021), and the Health Department is contacting everyone who has an appointment for the vaccine at those locations, to offer the Moderna vaccine instead.
An update to this message will be provided, as plans for the remainder of the week are finalized. The Health Department will continue to reach out to individuals who have the Johnson & Johnson vaccine scheduled to provide vaccine options.
