While getting his second COVID-19 vaccine dose on Tuesday, a New Hampshire man accidentally received the Pfizer jab, despite his first dose having been from Moderna. Despite the unfortunate mishap, officials say he’ll be just fine, with no further shots needed for now.

While medical experts reached by News 9 declined to comment on the situation due to the lack of data regarding mixing vaccine brands, New Hampshire’s Department of Health and Human Services released a statement late Wednesday offering further reassurance. Mixing brands, while possibly not ideal or as effective as receiving two shots from either Moderna or Pfizer, is a safe alternative in an emergency situation, the department explained.

“A mixed series is safe, as (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) guidance recommends mixing the series if the brand from the first dose is not available at the second dose,” their statement said. “While there have not been any clinical studies on whether a mixed series is as effective as a complete series, it will still provide enough protection that a third dose is not necessary or recommended.”

If there have been no studies, how do they know?

Believing in science is anti-science!

Now they have to decide what to give him for his third & fourth shots

Now they have to decide what to give him for his third & fourth shots

That's what a coin toss is for.

a third dose is not necessary or recommended...

That's not gonna last too long...

Pfizer, Moderna Say "Booster" Shots Probably Needed [this year and annually thereafter & *NOT* a booster]

His DNA will now be so messed up he’ll begin mutating into a zombie werewolf.

Mixed vax shots side effects....

The guy seemed okay. But now he plays the harpsichord at world class concert level, speaks fluent Latin and may have solved some longstanding problems in the Super String Theory.

Also feels a little fatigued.

If he had gotten the barcode on his forehead, this mistake would not have happened.

Look on the bright side...

Someone should dress up as the Incredible Hulk and run past people in line shouting “Don’t get the shot!”

Officials say he’ll be just fine

".... If there have been no studies, how do they know?...."

Precisely. These medical experts have just inadvertently revealed a chink in their armor.

That is, they are riding on the seats of their pants and making this shit up as they go along. Just like Fake Fauci.

I can't believe they would make such an off the cuff remark like that without some evidence to back it up.

If I was the patient, I would be looking to have somebody held responsible for this screw up.

[Bloodandgravy]

The best of both worlds.

You better stay away from him. He’ll rip your lungs out, Jim...

[GnuThere]

Oh darn, now he’ll have to alternate booster doses to stay on track:
Moderna, Pfizer, Moderna, Pfizer...

Thanks for answering my question of the day.

"Now they have to decide what to give him for his third & fourth shots"

He's on a roll. He might as well try them all!!

Dude... now he’s a triple chimera.
