DALLAS — The City of Dallas said Tuesday it has learned of 18 children who were vaccinated at the Potter's House.
The City said these individuals were under the age of 18 years, in the Dallas County registration database, and received an invitation to schedule a vaccination appointment.
The Moderna vaccine is only approved for people 18 years and over.
City officials said they have instituted a process to check each person's birthday twice before they are vaccinated, instead of the previous process, which just checked whether the person's name matched the person registered.
"We will be monitoring this process and make additional improvements as needed," the City said in a statement.
