Clinical narrative: About 24 hours later, I noticed a rash the size of quarter. On Tuesday, the rash was bigger and it was swollen underneath - the lump underneath it was the size of a golf ball. Wednesday and Thursday - Nurse measured it had rash top was 7 cm and the lump underneath was the size of my palm (much bigger). It was really painful and really itchy.  On Thursday, I did a telehealth video chat - and I showed it to the doctor and that's when I went to the clinic where the nurse measured it. Treatment was given: Steroid cream - called Triamcinolone. I used it that night and by the next day the redness had gone down 50% and the lump decrease, also. I have been using it twice a day since Thursday. Today the redness is gone and the lump is maybe the size of a quarter.  It's about 90% better but not completely gone.

Vaccine: COVID19
Symptoms: Expired product administered
Clinical narrative: Background: pharmacy received 49 vials of Pfizer COVID vaccine (Lot number EN6199) on 5 March 2021 and stored them in the pharmacy refrigerator.   The doses were labeled with an expiration date of 10 March 2021 at 0701.   Since starting the COVID-19 vaccine program, the pharmacy has always used the doses before they approached the expiration date.  This time, there were 16 vials of the Pfizer vaccine that had not been used and set to expire. The labeled expiration date and time were clearly present on the outside of the bag containing the doses.  On the morning of 10 March 2021, a pharmacist retrieved 1 vial at 0754 and 7 vials at 1138 from that allocation and provided them to nursing for the day?s administrations.  The pharmacy placed those doses in a new amber bag and did not label the bag with an expiration date and time.   The nursing team received the vials, diluted and drew up 20 doses that were administered to patients before 1230.    The charge nurse did not question the expiration date until after 20 patients had been vaccinated.  At that time she messaged the pharmacist to verify the expiration date.  The pharmacist indicated that the label did not state am or pm and misinterpreted the expiration time for the doses as 7:01 PM rather than 7:01 AM.  There was not a defined double check at the time of distribution from the pharmacy to nursing  The remaining 11 vials were quarantined.  The pharmacy manager contacted the manufacturer.  According to Pfizer it?s recommended to use the thawed vaccine within 120 hours, but can be used up to 144 hours.  The doses in question were administered before 125 hours after they were thawed.  The remaining expired vials will be wasted and appropriate notifications sent.  Assessment: Twenty patients received Pfizer COVID vaccine 5 hours passed the labeled expiration date and time.  While exceeding the manufacturer?s recommended beyond use dating, the doses were within the acceptable 144 hours post thaw period and still safe for patient administration.  There was misinterpretation of the labeled expiration time by the dispensing pharmacist, the container of COVID vaccine vials provided to nursing was not labeled with an expiration date or time, there was not a double check on hand off, the nursing team did not double check the expiration date/time before dilution or administration.  Recommendation:  When repackaging COVID Vaccine vials for distribution to vaccination centers, a label including the expiration date and time should be placed on the new container.    When COVID vaccine is transferred from one location or department to the next, a double check of the product, quantity, integrity and expiration date and time may prevent a recurrence of this situation.

Vaccine: COVID19
Symptoms: Impaired work ability, Muscle spasms, Neuralgia, Pain in extremity
Clinical narrative: Immediately after receiving the vaccine, I had stinging pain spreading like a wasp sting (to which I am allergic) traveling down my left arm. Within a half hour, sharp muscle cramps took place simultaneously on top of the "wave" of sting like pain. These waves of cramping pain changed in location, but were strongest in my arms and legs. Between these waves, sharp pinching nerve pain happens in specific spots which could be anywhere including scalp and between toes. I had one good day with little pain. Other days are not so bad if I keep ibuprofen consistently in my system. It has been 12 days, and these pains have lessened but not stopped.  The remaining pains are more of the sharp isolated nerve pains.  I have not had any flu like symptoms, and I've had very little pain at the injection site.  I have not been able to work much of the 12 days since the shot. I worry that the nerve pain may not go away.

Symptoms: Expired product administered
Clinical narrative: Background: Hesperia pharmacy received 49 vials of Pfizer COVID vaccine (Lot number EN6199) on 5 March 2021 and stored them in the pharmacy refrigerator.   The doses were labeled with an expiration date of 10 March 2021 at 0701.   Since starting the COVID-19 vaccine program, the Hesperia MOB has always used the doses before they approached the expiration date.  This time, there were 16 vials of the Pfizer vaccine that had not been used and set to expire. The labeled expiration date and time were clearly present on the outside of the bag containing the doses.  On the morning of 10 March 2021, a pharmacist retrieved 1 vial at 0754 and 7 vials at 1138 from that allocation and provided them to nursing for the day?s administrations.  The pharmacy placed those doses in a new amber bag and did not label the bag with an expiration date and time.   The nursing team received the vials, diluted and drew up 20 doses that were administered to patients before 1230.    The charge nurse did not question the expiration date until after 20 patients had been vaccinated.  At that time she messaged the pharmacist to verify the expiration date.  The pharmacist indicated that the label did not state am or pm and misinterpreted the expiration time for the doses as 7:01 PM rather than 7:01 AM.  There was not a defined double check at the time of distribution from the pharmacy to nursing  The remaining 11 vials were quarantined.  The pharmacy manager contacted the manufacturer.  According to Pfizer it?s recommended to use the thawed vaccine within 120 hours, but can be used up to 144 hours.  The doses in question were administered before 125 hours after they were thawed.  The remaining expired vials will be wasted and appropriate notifications sent.  Assessment: Twenty patients received Pfizer COVID vaccine 5 hours passed the labeled expiration date and time.  While exceeding the manufacturer?s recommended beyond use dating, the doses were within the acceptable 144 hours post thaw period and still safe for patient administration.  There was misinterpretation of the labeled expiration time by the dispensing pharmacist, the container of COVID vaccine vials provided to nursing was not labeled with an expiration date or time, there was not a double check on hand off, the nursing team did not double check the expiration date/time before dilution or administration.  Recommendation:  When repackaging COVID Vaccine vials for distribution to vaccination centers, a label including the expiration date and time should be placed on the new container.    When COVID vaccine is transferred from one location or department to the next, a double check of the product, quantity, integrity and expiration date and time may prevent a recurrence of this situation.
