Questions have arisen concerning the new Covid-19 vaccine developed by Johnson & Johnson, which produced the vaccine with abortion-derived cell lines. The chairs of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops’ Committee on Doctrine (Bishop Rhoades) and Committee on Pro-Life Activities (Archbishop Joseph Naumann) recently issued a statement in which they assure Catholics, “While we should continue to insist that pharmaceutical companies stop using abortion-derived cell lines, given the world-wide suffering that this pandemic is causing, we affirm again that being vaccinated can be an act of charity that serves the common good…”
The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops first encouraged Catholics, back on December 11th, to understand being vaccinated as “an act of charity.” The recent statement from Bishops Rhoades and Naumann refers Catholics to that earlier statement in which the bishops remind us, “Being vaccinated safely against Covid-19 should be considered an act of love of our neighbor and part of our moral responsibility for the common good.” As Pope Francis mentioned in an interview in January, “I believe that morally everyone must take the vaccine. It is the moral choice because it is about your life but also the lives of others.”
