In the city of Auckland in New Zealand, several people received saline instead of a vaccine from coronavirus when vaccinated. This is reported by the local RNZ radio station.
On July 12, in the center of Hibruk district vaccination in Auckland, unused vaccine bottles were discovered after 732 vaccinations were made during the day. It is assumed that some residents instead of the preparation against coronavirus introduced a salt solution, which is bred by a vaccine.
The authorities began investigating the incident. The minister responsible for the fight against the coronavirus pandemic in the country, Chris Hipkins acknowledged the presence of an error in the vaccination process. According to him, the “human factor” can never be excluded, however, in general, the population of New Zealand effectively and safely gains vaccinations.
This is not the first case when instead of the drug from coronavirus, people were made of an injury. Thus, on August 12, it was reported that in Germany a nurse of the Red Cross could introduce patients with saline instead of a vaccine. Although the saline is harmless, most people vaccinated in Germany in March and April, when a nurse could have been engaged in such activities, are older people with high risk of infection.
