Via: The Denver Gazette:

More than 600 people with appointments were turned away from the “Vaccines for All” event at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park on Wednesday after a number of people had an adverse reaction to the Johnson & Johnson vaccine, according to a statement from Centura Health.

The vaccination clinic — sponsored by Centura Health and the state —closed around 3:30 p.m. after more than 1,700 shots were administered. Kevin Massey, a spokesperson for Centura Health, said 11 people had an adverse reaction in the on-site observation site, which required two patients to be transported to a hospital for additional observation.
