A rare mix-up in the COVID-19 vaccine process happened at a Monroe Walgreens, NBC affiliate WCNC Charlotte reports.

Walgreens confirmed it accidentally gave some people an injection of saline instead of the COVID-19 vaccine.

Walgreens said it reached out to all impacted patients and administered the COVID-19 vaccine as soon as patients were able to return to the pharmacy, according to WCNC.

Walgreens said it is investigating what happened. Officials have taken immediate steps to review Walgreens' procedures.

The saline is for 60 and over people, a major screwup. Gotta stretch the supplies and use them where they count!

Have you ever seen the Steve Martin “Placebos” skit. Good stuff, man...

Sure sounds like a double-blind placebo was administered, doesn’t it?

“I am still looking for a business or industry where no one ever makes a mistake.

You just know with 100 million vaccinations, there are bound to be some screw-ups.”

Humans are doctors and also they are toilet cleaners. They all make mistakes.They avoid mistakes with “processes”. We’d like to believe that the more crucial the task, the more sophisticated and foolproof the processes. Apparently not! This is one of the reasons I have no more respect for the medical industry than I do for the car repair business. Minimum wage “medical assistants” made a pretty large mistake with me last week.

Not funny, of course but reminds me of a David Letterman joke.

There were deliberately phony flu shots being sold to places by a criminal. Authorities were trying to trace serials numbers and so on.

Letterman: Ways to Know if Your Flu Shot is Phony

On the form the authorizing physician is listed as “Dr. Pepper.”

Could it also have gone the other way? Would hate to be the customer who got a whole bag of the vaccine pumped into them instead of saline.

The frozen vax is only good for 5-6 hours. How many have gotten jabbed at 7 hours? Who’s to say it didn’t thaw during shipping? Too many ways for this to screw up.

How could that have been an accident? Maybe someone needs to be prosecuted.

I’m ok with this. Where can I get a saline shot accompanied by a proof of COVID-19 vaccination card?

We have friends who also did the county drive-thru “vaxxing”.

I asked one of them “who was giving these shots”, in this long line, and full parking lot.

She had NO idea and could’ve cared less.

I asked what they were to do, if they felt ill, while waiting their time....she said, “honk”.

😜🙃

LOL. Good one. Don’t remember being told to ‘honk’ but then
we where within asking distance if we needed them.

When the RNA vaccines came out there were many press reports they had to be transported and stored at abnormally low temperatures. Those special storage and transportation capabilities had to be created and installed, they were not in place at most locations. Given saline has been used for years without the special low temperature storage, how could it be accidentally mixed up with the RNA vaccines?

I think people were bribing employees to shoot them up with the saline instead of the CoupFlu vaxx.
