The following information was reported: HAEMORRHAGE (medically significant) with onset 31Mar2022, outcome "unknown", described as "bleed"; PRODUCT ADMINISTERED AT INAPPROPRIATE SITE (non-serious) with onset 31Mar2022, outcome "unknown", described as "shot was done to the side towards the back and form an angle, not a severe angle, but going from down to up"; PAIN IN EXTREMITY (non-serious) with onset 31Mar2022, outcome "unknown", described as "sore arm". Caller stated that she had her "second booster shot yesterday" which was done a "little differently with her previous three and as seen in TV when giving vaccine." Caller mentioned that usually the "vaccines go straight on the side of the arm, or where vaccines are usually administered." Caller explained that yesterday, her "shot was done to the side towards the back and form an angle, not a severe angle, but going from down to up." Caller also mentioned that "it was not a deep angle." Caller mentioned that she "usually get her vaccine in the morning and then day after, she starts to feel some kind of symptoms; but yesterday, caller received her second booster shot in the afternoon and feel nothing but a sore arm." Caller also mentioned that "she bled yesterday which she have never bled after getting the COVID vaccine before." Offered call back to provide response on this request. Caller was asking how long the needle was used for COVID vaccine.

Concern: Consumer stated, "Okay I had my second booster, Pfizer booster for COVID and the experience was much different for me than the first 3 times (further clarifications unknown) and I just want to confirm was that done correctly, and I should have everything you know except for this. Now normally any COVID vaccine or any experience I have had with them doing it with me or watching them doing for my family, they turn straight into the side of the arm you know the side of the arm that comes down below the shoulder you know what I am saying okay, and they come just straight in. This one yesterday, she went towards back of the arm and she did it at an angle. "Consumer was informed about the role of Pfizer Drug Safety and Pfizer Medical Information Department for the concern. Consumer stated, "Wait, are you the Pfizer Medical Information Department or that's where you are transferring me to? Let me take their number but I am going to ask you to transfer them as well."
