TULSA Oklahoma health officials are working to contact 1,150 people who received COVID-19 vaccinations in Tulsa this week, asking them to repeat their dose after a storage error was discovered.
Officials stressed that there was no health risk for those who received the shots, but they recommended a repeat dose to ensure the full efficacy of the vaccine.

The affected clinics are: the James O. Goodwin Health Center; the Central Regional Health Center; the Sand Springs Health Center; and the North Regional Health and Wellness Center. No other clinics were impacted.

TULSA, Oklahoma -
1,150 people will need to repeat their dose of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine after the Tulsa Health Department discovered an error in the vaccine storage.
THD said they found an internal cold chain error where the vaccine was accidentally stored at freezing temperatures for too long.
They said the impacted doses aren’t dangerous, they just weren’t effective. Health officials recommend repeating the dose to make sure you’re fully protected against the virus.
THD officials said those that received the vaccine do not face any known health risk from the error.
