The state health department suspended the pharmacy from participating in its COVID-19 vaccination program after an on-site visit revealed a number of issues with their handling of the vaccines. The CDC found approximately 2,100 COVID-19 vaccine doses to be invalid because of the pharmacy’s violations.
The facility primarily administered booster shots but also gave primary doses. All patients who received COVID-19 vaccines during the pharmacy’s off-site clinics between Jan. 15, 2021, and April 1, 2022, should be revaccinated, according to the state health department.
