Pharmacy in Virginia administered wrong COVID-19 vaccine to children 5-11

pharmacy in Loudoun County, Virginia, administered the wrong COVID-19 vaccine to children 5-11 years old, according to state officials.

The Virginia Department of Health said it believes about 112 children were given the vaccine formulated for those 12 years and older on Nov. 3-4 at Ted Pharmacy in Aldie.
Federal and state officials ordered the pharmacy on Nov. 5 to stop administering the vaccine, and Virginia's health agency collected all COVID-19 vaccines at the location, FOX 5 reported on Wednesday.

News4 reported about inquiring parents, including one mother who said her 7-year-old daughter was given a diluted dose of the vaccine meant for children 12 and older, which came in a vial with a purple cap, not an orange one found on vaccines for younger children.
