Shortly after 1200 Nurse was returning from where she was pulled to assist a patient.

She went into the small cooler and pulled Pfizer monovalent, which had been placed in separately labeled "Monovalent" bag in its original packaging with the regional label. All nurses had been advised of this and told to check the packaging as well as the vial for the bivalent label. The nurse made a mistake and pulled two vials of the monovalent vaccine and drew them up but noted the different lot number with the other nurses. The administering nurse proceeded to take and vaccinate 4 patients with this vaccine. The mistake was noticed when a first dose patient came in for Pfizer and she went to pull a monovalent vaccine, she noticed that the lot number was the same as what she was told was the bivalent vaccine.
