FAYETTEVILLE – April 13, 2021 – Following new guidance from the Food and Drug Administration and the Centers for Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Cape Fear Valley Health is cancelling this week’s two scheduled walk-in clinics for the Johnson and Johnson vaccine. The health system’s other vaccine clinics, which offer the Pfizer and the Moderna vaccines, remain open and are taking appointments.

“While the CDC and FDA monitor this evolving concern, out of an abundance of caution, we are pausing the two Johnson and Johnson clinics that we had scheduled for this week,” said Vice President of Professional Services at Cape Fear Valley Health Chris Tart, PharmD. “This has no effect on our other clinics offering the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines.
