Vaccine admin error

[impact]

"A 75-year-old man is among multiple people in Ontario who say they were accidentally given the equivalent of six doses of the COVID-19 vaccine while getting their booster shot. "CTV News Toronto has spoken with multiple people who received their booster shot at the Schomberg Medical Clinic near Newmarket on Jan. 8 and were affected by the vaccine mix-up."

"According to health officials, each Pfizer COVID-19 vial contains 0.25 mL of product, which saline is added to and is enough vaccine for six doses.
In this case, the vaccine was not diluted and people were given the full vial."

"We were kind of freaked out," she told CTV News Toronto. "Then we started feeling really crappy that night. The whole next couple of days we had a really bad fever, chills, and body aches. We were knocked out for a couple of days."

"The doctor should have never messed that up," she said, adding that she has concerns about potential long-term effects.
She said she was told by reception at the clinic that more than 20 people received an undiluted dose that day.

"The daughter of the 75-year-old man who also received the undiluted dose said her dad was left "very lethargic and confused."
""He had no appetite. He wasn't eating for about two days," the woman, who also preferred not be identified, said.
