ANOTHER Batch Of Moderna Vaccines Has Been Suspended

Not surprising…..

I recently did a piece covering a batch of the Moderna vaccine which had to be suspended in Japan due to foreign contaminants found in some of the doses.

Well, it just happened again…..

According to sources, Japan had to suspend an additional batch of the vaccine due to a ‘black particle’ substance found to have contaminated some the doses.

Sources were unclear as to what the black particles could be, but this sure isn’t helping to boost confidence in the vaccine:

The latest defective batch was reported by The Epoch Times:

The Japanese government put another batch of Moderna COVID-19 vaccines on hold after a black material was found in one of the vials, according to authorities.

A pharmacist in Kanagawa, a coastal prefecture just south of Tokyo, reported finding several black particles in one vial.

Takeda Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd., a drugmaker distributing Moderna vaccines in Japan, said some 3,790 people already received shots from the suspended lot.

The previous Moderna contamination was noted by The New York Post:

Japan suspended use of about 1.63 million doses of Moderna vaccine Thursday after contamination was found in unused vials, raising concern of a supply shortage as the country tries to accelerate vaccinations amid a COVID-19 surge.

The health ministry said contamination was reported from multiple vaccination sites. Some doses might have been administered, but no adverse health effects have been reported so far, officials said.
