re: #100 Eclectic Cyborg

A mass vaccination site temporarily shut down Wednesday in Denver after 18 vaccine recipients suffered adverse side effects.

The clinic administered more than 1,700 shots of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine Wednesday prior to the pause, local CBS affiliate KCNC reported. The reactions occurred at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park, home of MLS’ Colorado Rapids, which opened March 22 as a vaccine site.

18 out of more than 1700 works out just a hair over one percent.

It does, but it’s possible that this could be related to the EB issues that resulted in millions of doses having to get thrown out due to contamination and production issues. Or it could be storage/supply chain issues causing a batch to somehow go wrong. Or it was a statistical fluke.
