BERLIN, April 23 (Reuters) - Johnson & Johnson's
COVID-19 vaccine is safe and effective and its side effects are
very rare, the head of Germany's vaccine regulator said on
Friday.
Klaus Cichutek, the head of the Paul-Ehrlich-Institut, said
Germany's vaccination expert panel, known as STIKO, had not put
any restrictions on the use of the J&J vaccine.
