French patients injected with saline in COVID-19 vaccine error – Reports

Moscow, Apr 24 (Sputnik) A vaccine error in a small northern French town of Epernay led 140 patients to be administered saline solution instead of the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine against the coronavirus, media said.
The authorities in Epernay in the Marne department conducted a probe into the Tuesday incident but did not disclose the reason for the mix-up, according to the France Bleu radio.
Saline solution is a harmless mixture of salt and water that is similar to body fluids. Some patients who were injected with it have already received a Pfizer shot, while others have an appointment scheduled for Wednesday.
