On Sunday night, state officials said those doses should be put into storage after a large number of possible severe allergic reactions occurred at a community vaccination program in San Diego.
According to Kings County Public Health, ARII Community Health Centers had already given 200 doses of it, but no serious allergic reaction was noticed.

Kings County Health officials said in a press release that the state’s decision to suspend the administration based on a report is a reflection of the testing under these vaccines, and a full commitment to safety at the state and local levels.
Tuller County health officials also confirmed that they used some of the 500,500,000 doses they received, but no one reacted badly during the 15- to 30-minute observation window following the shot.
“We have no reports of severe reactions, and if they do occur, they are likely to occur during the inspection period,” said Carrie Montero, a spokeswoman for Tulare County HHSA.
In a letter sent to the providers, the state adds that no other reported incidents related to the lot have occurred.
While it awaits more direction from the state, Tuller County Public Health will hang on to doses they don’t use.
They say the pause should not affect the vaccination clinics they have already scheduled for this week, but it could affect others.
“We tell people to be patient with us,” Montero said. “We want to give more vaccines but we are still in a very limited supply, so having this could be an obstacle for us to get more clinics scheduled for the rest of the week. However, we hope to act.
Get more vaccines quickly and in supply so we don’t have this period. “
The Mariposa County Health and Human Services Agency has received 300 doses of many items in question.
No one has been used તેઓ they will make the most of the supplies for the mass vaccination event on Thursday.
But as long as the investigation goes on, they will sit in the freezer.
Mariposa County Health Officer Dr. “We are at the last minute to make a decision,” said Eric Serjinko. “It could come on Wednesday night, we say we don’t know enough and just postpone it. Again, we’re both ready to move on.
Short notice, but I hope we can clear it before then. “
Despite the concerns, Dr. Sergienko is confident in the safety and effectiveness of the vaccine.
He believes more vaccinations will reduce the stress on Valley’s hospitals and eventually reopen the economy and return to normal life.
“I’m excited for the flu season if I have a 55% vaccine effectiveness and this is a 95% effective vaccine, which means you have reduced the chances of getting a disease that can be debilitating or life-threatening,” he said.
On Monday afternoon, Merced County Public Health joined the list of Central Valley counties that say they were giving doses from several parts of Moderna before a hearing from the state.
