Peste 40 de persoane au primit din greşeală tratamentul cu anticorpi monoclonali Regeneron în locul vaccinului Moderna, a anunțat joi Garda Națională din West Virginia. Cele 42 de persoane au fost vaccinate, intramuscular, la o clinică de vaccinare din Boone County. Tratamentul, care a primit în noiembrie autorizația de utilizare de urgență de la Administrația pentru Alimente și Medicamente, este administrat în mod normal sub formă de perfuzie intravenoasă. "S-a stabilit că acesta a fost un incident izolat", a declarat Julie Miller, administrator al Departamentului de Sănătate din Bonne, pentru ABC News, citat de observatornews. Regeneron este un cocktail de anticorpi concepuți pentru combaterea COVID-19.
