Nurse faints LIVE after receiving Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine
In a hospital in Tennessee, a nurse speaking to the media, moments after you get your first dose of Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine, Then suddenly said she felt extremely dizzy and passed out for reporters who were broadcasting live.
The nurse, responsible for CHI Memorial Hospital in Chattanooga, Tiffany Dover, recovered moments laterBut the accident dealt another blow to a public health initiative to boost confidence in the coronavirus vaccine.
Happy, there was a medic to stop Dover’s fall, who was on his feet after a few minutes and explained that the reaction is not uncommon for her.
“It just hit me suddenly, I felt it coming,” said Dover. “I felt a bit disoriented, but now I feel fine, and the pain in my arm is gone.”
I’ve had an overactive vagal reaction in the past, so if something hurts me or if I stub my toe, I may pass out.
Fainting is not a vaccination reaction
A member of the CHI Memorial medical staff said the side effect was unrelated to the ingredients in the vaccine, jointly developed by Pfizer and the German company BioNTech and approved by the Food and Drug Administration earlier this month.
“It’s a reaction that can very often occur with any vaccine or injection,” says Dr. Jesse Tucker, the hospital’s medical director.
As public health officials across the country work to build confidence in the new vaccine, which has been developed at lightning speed and accelerated by the FDA emergency permit, the Chattanooga incident wasn’t the only major public relations problem for Pfizer’s immunization this week.
Another failure is that which occurred in a hospital in El Paso, Texas, which was released on Tuesday and released by The Truth News was then a nurse apparently was administering a vaccine with an empty syringe, raising some puzzling questions and reactions online.
Although the hospital claims that all staff seen in the footage from the event received full doses of the vaccine, without providing an explanation for the visibly empty syringe, it said the nurse in question was a second time vaccinated to “remove any doubts” and “to further strengthen confidence in the vaccination process.”
In Texas, a nurse is vaccinated twice, after a fictitious vaccination with an empty syringe.
But when a second app was suspicious, the hospital said “Re-vaccinating the nurse has no adverse consequences.”
Countries like the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia and Mexico have approved the Pfizer BioNTech vaccine, but some regulators have warned of possible adverse effects.
