Is the Pfzier generally safe for children and teens? :???:

Apparently so. Obviously they will have more reactions to the jab primarily due to the overwhelming response of their stronger immune systems (unlike the nil response that I got).

Yes. All teens under 18 will be given the Pfizer jab, while those 18 and above will be given the option of Moderna or Pfizer.

Apparently, they just jabbed a 16 year old wrongly with Moderna...

I wonder who made the appointment when the wrong DOB was keyed in... The parents or the boy?

Though the staff at the vaccination centre also failed to confirm the DOB. Wonder how would they do that? With the first two digits of the IC number which indicates the year the individual was born?

Because if they didn’t verify IC number at any stage of the vaccination, that would be a huge red flag ‘cos I had IC number verified at registration and at the nurse’s station before I got jabbed.

For minors under 18, the link is sent directly to the parents, so it was probably the parent who made the appointment. Even so, at the vaccination center, they asked my daughter for her DOB and IC number at every point in the process so I don’t see how this could have happened.
