As the nation mourns the loss of a much love member of the royal family, Buckingham Palace announced a royal ceremonial funeral will take place April 17th at Windsor Castle. His son, Prince Charles, said he was touched by the number of people around the world who have shared the family's loss and sorrow. "My dear Papa was a very special person who I think, above all else, would have been amazed by the reaction and the touching² things that have been said about him." The service will be slimmed down and entirely³ close to the public. Philip's grandson, Prince Harry⁴, will attend the service along with other members of the royal family. His wife, the Duchess of Sussex, who is pregnant, has been advised by her doctor not to attend. Karen Chammas, London.

Georgia health officials have halted vaccinations⁵ at a site administering the Johnson & Johnson shot after eight people experienced adverse⁶ reactions. However, experts say it doesn't seem to be an issue with the vaccine⁷. AP's Julie Walker reports. Three other states also temporarily shut sites down. Dr. Amy Baxter at Georgia Medical College says it's not the Johnson & Johnson vaccine that's the issue here. It's that people taking it are more prone⁸ to fainting. "There's no problem with the J&J vaccine. There's no problem with safety. It's just that we have made it easier for people who don't like needles to get vaccinated⁹ with only one shot." She says those people go for the J&J vaccine. "The vaccine is very safe and tiny minor¹⁰ side effects are nothing compared to the risk of dying or prolonged illness." I'm Julie Walker.

乔治亚州卫生官员停止了强生疫苗注射点的接种，此前有8人出现了不良反应。不过，专家表示，这似乎不是疫苗的问题。请听美联社记者朱莉·沃克报道。另外三个州也暂时关闭了强生疫苗注射点。乔治亚医学院的艾米·巴克斯特博士表示，问题不在于强生疫苗。只是接种强生疫苗的人更容易晕厥。“强生疫苗没有问题。其安全性没有问题。只是我们让接种疫苗的流程更简易，让不喜欢针头的人只需要接种一针。”她表示，那些人喜欢强生疫苗。“强生疫苗是非常安全的，与死亡或长期疾病的风险相比，微小的副作用根本不算什么。”我是朱莉·沃克。您可以通过voanews.com浏览更多相关故事及当天其他新闻。您还可以通过VOA手机端程序关注我们。我是大卫·伯德，为您远程报道美国之音新闻。
