The COVID-19 vaccination clinics that were slated to open Tuesday in Turlock and Modesto had to be postponed after the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention issued a warning for a batch of vaccines that caused some allergic reactions, the Stanislaus County Health Services Agency reported.
Vaccination concerns arise as Moderna batch is halted, variant linked to outbreaks
The rollout of vaccines has put many minds at ease that there is finally a chance of getting some control of the virus. Some concerns still remain, however.
On Sunday California State Epidemiologist Dr. Erica S. Pan recommended providers pause the administration of a batch of Moderna vaccines distributed in lot 41L20A after some people in San Diego County experienced acute allergic reactions to the vaccine. Fewer than 10 individuals required medical attention over the span of 24 hours. Out of an extreme abundance of caution and also recognizing the extremely limited supply of vaccine, we are recommending that providers use other available vaccine inventory and pause the administration of vaccines from Moderna Lot 041L20A until the investigation by the CDC, FDA, Moderna and the state is complete. We will provide an update as we learn more, said Dr. Pan.
