New COVID-19 Content

[edit]
COVID-19 Article Updates

Request: Hi! I'm posting here on behalf of Johnson & Johnson, a company I have declared my COI. The article currently has no mention of Johnson & Johnson and its companies participation with the COVID-19 global pandemic. When you research COVID-19 online there are many secondary sources about its contributions. In my research, the events outlined below are the notable for inclusion in the article.


Content about the request: Below is the proposed material to publish on the article. The subtitle above each section is a subsection in the History section. I'm proposing adding the new content below the existing paragraphs in the sections.


[[user:Indefensible|Indefensible]] and [[user:XyZAn|XyZAn]] do you have the interest to review this proposal? Open to ideas and suggestions too. Thank you--Chefmikesf (talk) 02:26, 23 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

1959: McNeil Consumer Healthcare:

Demand for the product Tylenol surged two to four times normal levels in March 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic. In response, the company increased production globally. For example, the Tylenol plant in Puerto Rico ran 24 hours a day, seven days a week.[1]

2.

1961: Janssen Pharmaceuticals:

Janssen Pharmaceuticals, in partnership with Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center (BIDMC), is developing a vaccine candidate for COVID-19, based on the same technology used to make its Ebola vaccine. September 2020, the vaccine candidate is prepared to enter phase 1 human clinical study.[2][3][4]

3.

Ethicon, Inc.:

In response to the shortage of ventilators during the COVID-19 pandemic, Ethicon, with Prisma Health, made and distributed the VESper Ventilator Expansion Splitter. Using 3D printing technology, the product is used to expand the capacity of one ventilator to support two patients.[5]

4.

2010 onwards:

Johnson & Johnson committed over $1 billion toward development of a COVID-19 not-for-profit vaccine in partnership with the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA) Office of the Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response (ASPR) at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).[6][7] In a Sky News interview, Dr. Paul Stoffels, M.D.,  Johnson & Johnson Chief Scientific Officer and Vice Chairman of the Executive Committee said, “In order to go fast, Johnson & Johnson - the people of Johnson & Johnson - are committed to do this and all together we say we're going to do this not for profit. That's the fastest and the best way to find all the collaborations in the world to make this happen so we commit to bring this at a not-for-profit level."[8]

[edit]
Early History Updates

1873-1885: Before Johnson & Johnson

[edit]

Robert Wood Johnson began his professional training as a pharmaceutical apprentice.[1] Johnson co-founded his own company with George Seabury in 1873. The New York-based Seabury & Johnson became known for its medicated plasters.[2][3] Robert Wood Johnson represented the company at the 1876 World's Fair.[4][5] There he heard Dr. Joseph Lister’s explanation of a new procedure: antiseptic surgery.[6] Johnson parted ways with his business partner, Seabury in 1885.[7]

1886: Founding of Johnson & Johnson

[edit]
Robert Wood Johnson

Robert Wood Johnson joined his brothers, James Wood Johnson and Edward Mead Johnson and created a line of ready-to-use sterile surgical dressings in 1886. They founded Johnson & Johnson in 1886[8][9] with 14 employees, eight women and six men,[10] manufacturing sterile surgical supplies, household products, and medical guides.[11] Those products initially featured a logo that resembled the signature of James Wood Johnson, very similar to the current logo.[12] Robert Wood Johnson served as the first president of the company.[13] Upon his death in 1910, he was succeeded by his brother James Wood Johnson. Robert Wood Johnson II became president of the company in 1932.[14]

1887-1942: Early History

[edit]

The company sold medicated plasters such as Johnson & Johnson's Black Perfect Taffeta Court Plaster[15] and also manufactured the world’s first sterile surgical products, including sutures, absorbent cotton, and gauze.[16] Johnson & Johnson published Modern Methods of Antiseptic Wound Treatment, a guide on how to do sterile surgery using its products, and in 1888, distributed 85,000 copies to doctors and pharmacists across the United States.[17] The manual was translated into three languages and distributed worldwide.[18] The first commercial First Aid Kit was designed in 1888 to support railroad construction workers, who were often hundreds of miles from medical care.[17] The kits included antiseptic emergency supplies and directions for field use. In 1901, Johnson & Johnson published the Handbook of First Aid, a guide on applying first aid.[19] In 1889, the company hired pharmacist Fred Kilmer as its first scientific director, who led its scientific research and wrote educational manuals.[20] Kilmer was employed at Johnson & Johnson until 1934.[21] Kilmer’s first achievement as scientific director was developing the industrial sterilization process.[22] Johnson & Johnson had more than 400 employees and 14 buildings by 1894.[23][24] In 1894, the company began producing Johnson’s Baby Powder, the company’s first baby product.[25] Robert Wood Johnson's granddaughter, Mary Lea Johnson Richards, was the first baby to appear on a Johnson & Johnson baby powder label.[26][27]

The company introduced the world’s first Maternity kit in 1894 to aid at-home births. The kit contained antiseptic soap, sanitary napkins, umbilical tape, and Johnson’s Baby Powder.[28] The products were later marketed separately, including Lister’s Towels, which was the world’s first mass-produced sanitary napkin.[29][30] Kilmer wrote Hygiene in Maternity, an instructional guide for mothers before and after delivery.[31] In 1904, the company expanded its baby care products with Lister’s Sanitary Diapers, a diaper product for Infants.[32] During the Spanish American War, Johnson & Johnson developed and donated 300,000 packaged compressed surgical dressings for soldiers in the field[33] and created a trauma stretcher for field medics. Johnson & Johnson donated its products in disaster relief efforts of the 1900 Galveston hurricane[34] and the 1906 San Francisco earthquake.[35] Johnson & Johnson vaccinated all of its employees against smallpox during the 1901 smallpox epidemic. Johnson & Johnson employed more than 1,200 people by 1910.[36] Women comprised of half of the Johnson & Johnson workforce and led a quarter of Johnson & Johnson’s departments.[37] During World War I, Johnson & Johnson factories increased production to meet wartime demands for sterile surgical products.[38][39] In 1916, the company acquired Chicopee Manufacturing Company in Chicopee Falls, Massachusetts to meet demand.[40][41] Near the end of World War I, the 1918 flu pandemic broke out. The company invented and distributed an epidemic mask which helped prevent the spread of the flu.[42][43]

In 1919, Johnson & Johnson opened the Gilmour Plant near Montreal, its first factory outside of the United States,[44] which produced surgical products for international customers. In 1924, Slough, England was the company’s first overseas manufacturing facility.[45] In 1920, Earle Dickson combined two Johnson & Johnson products, adhesive tape and gauze, to create the first commercial adhesive bandage. Band-Aid Brand Adhesive Bandages began sales the following year.[46][47] In 1921, the company released Johnson’s Baby Soap.[48] Named after its Massachusetts facility, Johnson & Johnson built a textile mill and company town, Chicopee, outside of Gainesville, Georgia.[49] In the 1930s, the company expanded operations to Argentina, Brazil, Mexico, and South Africa.[50] In 1931, Johnson & Johnson introduced the first prescription contraceptive gel marketed as Ortho-Gynol.[51]

During The Great Depression Johnson & Johnson kept all its workers employed and raised wages by five percent.[52] In 1933, Robert Wood Johnson II wrote a letter, Dear Mr. President, to Franklin D. Roosevelt, calling for a federal law to increase wages and reduce hours for all American workers.[53] The company also opened a new facility in Chicago during that period.[54] Johnson wrote and distributed Try Reality: A Discussion of Hours, Wages, and The Industrial Future to persuade business leaders to follow his lead, advocating that business is more than profit and that companies have responsibilities to consumers, employees, and society. In Try Reality, the section titled “An Industrial Philosophy” would later become Our Credo.[55][56] In 1935, Johnson’s Baby Oil was added to its line of baby products.[57][58] Both male and female Johnson & Johnson employees were drafted and enlisted during World War II.[59][60] The company ensured no one would lose their job when they returned home. Robert Wood Johnson II was appointed head of the Smaller War Plants Corporation in Washington, D.C. His work ensured U.S. factories with under 500 employees were awarded government contracts.[61][62]

Updates to the COVID-19 content

[edit]

Hello, The Covid-19 section on the article became unorganized lately. First, the Momenta Pharmaceuticals content is irrelevant to this COVID-19 subsection and the content already exists in the 2010 onwards subsection. I suggest removing it from the COVID-19 subsection. Second, I see two distinct themes with the content. The company made an initial response to the pandemic. They developed the Ad26.COV2.S vaccine. I suggest breaking the subsection into two subsections, seen below, COVID-19 response and COVID-19 vaccine.

Grand'mere Eugene, what are your thoughts on my sandbox excerpt below? Would you be open to make these updates?

Proposed reorganization to the subsection

Coronavirus (COVID-19) response

[edit]

Johnson & Johnson committed over $1 billion toward the development of a not-for-profit COVID-19 vaccine in partnership with the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA) Office of the Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response (ASPR) at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).[1][2] Paul Stoffels of Johnson & Johnson said, "In order to go fast, the people of Johnson & Johnson are committed to do this and all together we say we're going to do this not for profit. That's the fastest and the best way to find all the collaborations in the world to make this happen so we commit to bring this at a not-for-profit level."[3]

Janssen Vaccines, in partnership with Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center (BIDMC), is responsible for developing the vaccine candidate, based on the same technology used to make its Ebola vaccine. The vaccine candidate is expected to enter phase 1 human clinical study in September 2020.[1][4][5]

Demand for the product Tylenol surged two to four times normal levels in March 2020. In response, the company increased production globally. For example, the Tylenol plant in Puerto Rico ran 24 hours a day, seven days a week.[6]

In response to the shortage of ventilators, Ethicon, with Prisma Health, made and distributed the VESper Ventilator Expansion Splitter, which uses 3D printing technology, to allow one ventilator to support two patients.[7]

Coronavirus (COVID-19) vaccine

[edit]
Main article: Ad26.COV2.S

In April 2020, Johnson & Johnson entered a partnership with Catalent who will provide large-scale manufacturing of J&J's vaccine at Catalent's Bloomington facility.[8] The partnership was expanded to include Catalent's Italian facility in July 2020.[9]

In June 2020, Johnson & Johnson and the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) confirmed its intention to start a clinical trials of J&J's vaccine in September 2020, with the possibility of Phase 1/2a human clinical trials starting at an accelerated pace in the second half of July.[10][11][12]

In July 2020, Johnson & Johnson pledged to deliver up to 300 million doses of its vaccine to the U.S., with 100 million upfront and an option for 200 million more. The deal, worth more than $1 billion, will be funded by the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA) and the U.S. Defense Department.[13][14]

On 5 August 2020, the US government agreed to pay more than $1 billion to Johnson and Johnson (medical device company) for the production of 100 million doses of COVID-19 vaccine. As part of the agreed-upon deal, the U.S. can order up to 200 million additional doses of SARS-CoV-2 vaccine.[15]

In September 2020, Johnson & Johnson started its 60,000-person phase 3 adenovirus-based vaccine trial.[16] The trial was paused on October 12, 2020, because a volunteer became ill,[17] but the company said it found no evidence that the vaccine had caused the illness and announced on October 23, 2020, that it would resume the trial.[18][19]

In September 2020, Grand River Aseptic Manufacturing agreed with Johnson & Johnson, to support the manufacture of its SARS-CoV-2 vaccine candidate, including technology transfer and fill and finish manufacture.[20]

JNJ COVID-19 Vaccine content additions

[edit]

Hello , I noticed your post about renaming the article. The post also inspired a few ideas to improve the accessibility to related information such as Adenovirus vaccines and the JNJ/Janssen clinical protocol. These suggestions are based on []'s decision to model the Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine article with other COVID-19 vaccine articles.

Below are the concepts. What are your thoughts ?

1. Add a See also section to the article after the Deployment and impact section, then add two links to the proposed See also section.

2. Add two links to the External links section.

3. Add Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine article link to the Johnson & Johnson Template box in the "Related section". Chefmikesf (talk) 20:45, 25 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  4. Remove the Unsourced Structure section content and tree chart.
  5. Remove paragraph one of products section. Contains the same information of in the Business Sectors section.

  7. Move paragraph two of the pharmaceutical subsection to the Janssen section of the History section.
  8. Move paragraph three and four of the pharmaceutical subsection to the pharmaceutical subsection of Business Sectors.
  9. Merge the last sentence in the 2010-onward section of the article.

Johnson & Johnson Business Segment Name on Subsidiary Wikipedia articles

[edit]

Hello @Grand'mere Eugene,

I hope all is well with you and the grandkids. I can't believe Halloween has passed, and the holidays are around the corner.

A few years ago, we worked on the Business Sectors section of the Johnson & Johnson article; rereading it this year piqued my curiosity. I read many of the historical subsidiary Wikipedia articles, and most still need the name of the current business segment. I saw some other community members updated the Janssen Pharmaceuticals and Abiomed Wikipedia article lead paragraphs' with the correct business segment name. Would you be open to collaborating on this? I found the first ten we could update, and I have already declared my COI on the respective talk pages. Should I post my suggested content edits here on my sandbox talk page or post each request on each company article talk page?

Here are the articles I found that could use an update:

Here are the secondary sources supporting these updates:

Chefmikesf (talk) 01:08, 9 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Grand'mere Eugene I see your point about moving some of the articles. I will review all the related articles and get back to you with some ideas. I'll research all the sources, too. I think there are some potential category updates, some article moves, and content updates. All the best--Chefmikesf (talk) 20:31, 2 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
