CHARLOTTE, N.C. (WBTV) - Several people mistakenly received a saline injection instead of the COVID-19 vaccine at a Walgreens in Monroe, North Carolina.
“We recently learned of a limited number of patients who did not receive the vaccine at one of our Monroe, North Carolina, stores and instead received an injection of saline,” a Walgreens spokesperson says.
Walgreens says it reached out to all impacted patients and gave them the COVID-19 vaccination as soon as they were able to return to the pharmacy.
“These patients will later receive their second dose within the appropriate time frame,” the Walgreens spokesperson said.
