RENO, Nev. (AP) — State health officials said they learned Wednesday that a Nevadan was one of the six people nationally who have reported serious reactions to Johnson & Johnson's COVID-19 vaccine.
State officials said when they announced Tuesday they were stopping use of that vaccine that no Nevadans were among the six cases federal authorities are investigating.
The governor's spokeswoman said Wednesday they weren't informed of the reported reaction in Nevada until a meeting earlier in the day of the public federal Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices.
She says Nevada officials are seeking an explanation why the report wasn't provided to the state earlier.
