I had the exact same thought this morning.

How will the playoffs work?
The league will have a traditional 16-team, best-of-seven playoff format this year, though it will look a bit different thanks to the divisional realignment. The top four teams in each division will qualify for the playoffs and be placed into divisional brackets for the first few rounds of the playoffs (No.1 seed vs. No. 4 seed, No. 2 seed vs. No. 3 seed).The four teams that advance to the Stanley Cup Semifinal (known as the Conference Final in a normal year) will be seeded by their regular season points total, with the No. 1 vs. No. 4 seed and No. 2 vs. No. 3.
This format means, in theory, this year's Stanley Cup Final could feature two teams that typically play in the same conference in a traditional season.

From what I understand AZ ingredients were used in the preparation of the J&J doses, screwing everything up and wasting a bunch of materials. Beyond adding oversight, the solution by the US government was to remove the ability of that site to make the AZ vaccine so they could concentrate on just making J&J, but in the end they were not approved by the FDA at the time and still are not AFAIK.

Surely we'd never allow any medicine with such a potential side effect to stay on the market, no matter how small.
Oh what? Birth control pills exist? Weeeeiiird.
Also we haven't *all* been careless or cavalier. That's something only someone who *has* been cavalier would say.

Thinks about all the medications advertised on TV with liver failure, etc., as a potential side effect. Or the potential side effects of the basic flu vaccine
It’s like people forget we live with and do things that have more risk than some of these things every day.

To be fair risk tolerance with medicines depends on its purpose. You can tolerate more risk if the medicine is to be used to treat someone with terminal cancer, for example. With vaccines, very little risk is normally tolerated because they are administered to healthy people. That said, we are in a pandemic, so the risk tolerance threshold with those vaccines is much lower than it would usually be (hence why many countries are still using AZ but adding age restrictions where they calculate that risk of COVID complications outweigh the risk of side-effects). Plus you have to consider that we have the mRNA vaccines which don't have this issue. Availability of those in each country comes into the equation for the various regulatory agencies too.
And with all that said, acetominophen is still an over the counter drug even though it's incredibly dangerous.
