Upon receipt of follow-up information on 23Dec2022, this case now contains all required information to be considered valid.   This is a spontaneous report received from a contactable reporter(s) (Consumer or other non HCP) from medical information team. The reporter is the patient.  A 70-year-old female patient received BNT162b2 (BNT162B2), on 04Mar2021 as dose 2, single (Batch/Lot number: unknown) at the age of 69 years for covid-19 immunisation. The patient's relevant medical history and concomitant medications were not reported. Vaccination history included: Bnt162b2 (dose 1, Lot number: unknown), when the patient was 69 years old, for COVID-19 immunisation, reaction(s): "she didn't feel like they put it in her deltoid muscle/ they put it down further than recommended". The following information was reported: PRODUCT ADMINISTERED AT INAPPROPRIATE SITE (non-serious) with onset 04Mar2021, outcome "unknown", described as "did not give her the shot in her deltoid muscle they put it further down/ injected her below the muscle".  Additional information: The reporter (patient) stated that the people who administered the vaccine said that if she received the first shot at one location, she had to receive the second shot at the same location. She was given the shot at a free clinic on the bad side of town and they went there and saw how crazy it was and they were going to leave but then decided to stay. When they first gave the shot at all other places, they take the temperature with the probe on the forehead and then they take the mask off and put a thermometer in the mouth. The person did not give her the shot in her deltoid muscle, they put it further down. They then put a blood pressure cuff on the right where the band aid was placed for the shot. She complained to the head person regarding what had happened and so the second dose she received they did not put a thermometer in her mouth and they did not take her blood pressure after the shot but before the shot. She had the pharmacist put a circle on her arm so that they put the vaccine in the correct spot for her second dose but the person who administered the vaccine erased it and then didn't know what was going on and injected her below the muscle. Pfizer announced on 08Jul2021 that they were making a Pfizer COVID vaccine designed specifically for the Delta variant and it would take 95 days to create it. The patient stated she would prefer to have that version for her booster dose.
