On the 11th of March, last month marked one year to the day that the COVID-19 was officially declared a pandemic by the WHO (World Health Organization). With a figure of 29.3 million, the USA is leading the chart in terms of COVID cases.
1) 91-year-old Ohio man had to be hospitalized after receiving two vaccinations within a day
On March 10th, an older man belonging to Hamilton, Ohio, received two coronavirus vaccinations within the same day and went into medical shock.
Thankfully, Victor Smith is now stable and on his road to recovery. However, this outcome was not very certain on the day that he received the shots. According to his daughter, Dawn Smith Theodore, “They pretty much told me that he was not going to make it.”
Her father received the first dose on the January of 22nd and became extremely ill and fatigued afterward. An amputee, Victor Smith, had to be taken to the Fort Hamilton Hospital, and he was later transferred to the Jamestown Rehabilitation Center.
Smith’s second shot was due on the February of 25th at the local fairgrounds. According to Theodore, her father appeared fine when he was being taken to the rehabilitation facility.
A mix-up occurred when, several hours later, a city firefighter came to the rehab facility to administer the scheduled COVID vaccines to all the patients.
Unfortunately, there were two Victor Smiths, and they ended up vaccinating the wrong one (Theodore’s father).
The incident is currently being investigated, according to the City of Hamilton and Community First Solution.
