Johnson & Johnson vaccine: cell line from aborted fetal tissue used in its development and production

[Xaawotaako]

"The Catholic Church’s concern about the Johnson & Johnson vaccine is that it is morally compromised as a cell line from aborted fetal tissue was used in its development and production," said Father Robert Shea, diocesan ethicist for health care. "As the U.S. Bishops’ statement on the Johnson & Johnson vaccine indicates, it is possible to receive it in good conscience if given no other choice, but it should be avoided if there are alternatives (like Pfizer or Moderna) available."

Clarity for Catholics: It's OK to get Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine – if it's the only one available

Catholics can get the Johnson & Johnson vaccine, despite its link to cells from an aborted fetus, if that's all that's available, Vatican says.

the point of the this article for me isn’t about what the Catholics can and cannot do, but rather the information that is revealed about the vaccine itself.
