Experts are voicing concerns about the potential for vaccine providers to mix up the omicron booster vial with those used for conventional vaccines.
The concern emerged at a public meeting of advisers to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention last week and was echoed on Saturday by a panel of health experts — the Western States Scientific Safety Review Workgroup — for four states, including California.
“The workgroup remains concerned about the potential for errors in the administration of the various COVID-19 vaccines, given that formulations for different age groups look alike,” the group said in a statement. “It is imperative that clear COVID-19 vaccination guidelines be disseminated to all vaccine providers.”
