To better protect yourself from government misinformation, please visit the <a href="https://frontline.news/pedia/overview" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Frontline Pedia</a>.<hr>The last remaining COVID-19 vaccines manufactured by Johnson &amp; Johnson have been removed from the US over two years after first being approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).19 million doses of the vaccine were injected into Americans’ arms throughout the pandemic, leaving 12.5 million remaining. They expired on May 7th, and the FDA ordered the pharmaceutical company to toss them.J&amp;J’s single-dose vaccine was one of the three major COVID-19 shots distributed in the US, other than Pfizer and Moderna, but soon fell out of favor when it was discovered to cause blood clots.On April 13, 2021, the FDA and CDC&nbsp;<a href="https://www.cdc.gov/media/releases/2021/s0413-JJ-vaccine.html">announced</a> a pause in J&amp;J vaccine distribution after they identified six women who developed severe blood clots following the injection.&nbsp;The discovery sent the Biden administration and its social media operatives scrambling to perform damage control for the other vaccines.“Re the J+J news, we’re keen to amplify any messaging you want us to project about what this means for people – it obviously has the risk of exacerbating vaccine hesitancy, so we’re keen to get ahead of the knock-on effect,” a Facebook executive asked White House COVID-19 Response Coordinator Senior Advisor Andrew Slavitt. “Don’t hesitate to tell me – or via your teams – how we can help you provide clarity/reassurance via Facebook.”&nbsp;The executive then sent another email to then-COVID-19 Response Team member Courtney Rowe and White House Digital Strategy Director Rob Flaherty, asking them “how we are amplifying the right messages.”&nbsp;Flaherty responded asking Facebook to put out “3-4 pieces of info” defending the vaccines, such as how the blood clots were found in only six women out of seven million people, the blood clots do not affect Pfizer or Moderna, the FDA and CDC are handling the situation, and other examples.&nbsp;The White House official also offered to provide Facebook with an FAQ sheet to be "amplified in whatever way possible.”&nbsp;Then Flaherty asked Facebook to change its very algorithm to make sure “a favorable review” of COVID-19 vaccines “reaches as many people as possible.”&nbsp;“A commitment from you guys to make sure that a favorable review reaches as many people as possible as the pause, either through hard product interventions or algorithmic amplification,” wrote Flaherty.&nbsp;Expectedly, the White House official also directed Facebook to make sure “the news about J&amp;J doesn’t spin off misinformation.”&nbsp;The following week, however, Facebook drew Flaherty’s ire after it refused to comply with the White House’s demand to censor Tucker Carlson for criticizing the J&amp;J vaccine and the Biden administration’s narrative.&nbsp;These emails, obtained by the New Civil Liberties Alliance (NCLA), were part of discovery in a lawsuit filed in May by Missouri and Louisiana Attorneys General Eric Schmitt and Jeff Landry respectively. The complaint alleges a “collusion enterprise” between the federal government and social media companies based on previously revealed internal emails. Judge Terry Doughty&nbsp;<a href="https://nclalegal.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/Doc.-72-Order-re-Discovery-Disputes.pdf">ruled</a> in favor of deposing top Biden officials, including former White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki, current White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, and former chief medical advisor to the president Anthony Fauci.&nbsp;
