The incident occurred on November 3 at Van Son medical station in Hanoi’s Quoc Oai district where 18 babies were mistakenly given the Pfizer shot instead of a flu shot. Hearing about the news, the Hanoi administration immediately asked relevant agencies to transfer all the injected babies to St. Paul Hospital for medical surveillance and treatment. Leading experts from the Central Children’s Hospital were dispatched to St. Paul Hospital to monitor the babies’ health. All medical staff involved in the vaccination shift were temporarily suspended from work to consider their responsibility. The Hanoi Department of Health also directed healthcare facilities to review the entire vaccination process to ensure similar incidents will not happen again. |
