EVANSVILLE, Ind. (WFIE) – An Evansville family and their attorney says they were accidentally given full adult doses of the Pfizer coronavirus vaccine instead of flu shots.
Alexandra and Joshua Price says it happened October 4, at the Walgreens on St. Joseph Avenue.
Their family of four includes two adults and two children who are just five and four years old.
The Pfizer vaccine isn’t approved for children that young. They are seeking approval for children ages five to 11, but the dosage would be one third that of the adult dose. Pfizer has not asked permission to vaccinate children age four or younger.
