A 70-year-old woman in Buriram, Thailand, was accidentally administered two AstraZeneca vaccine doses on the same day at a vaccination center.
The error occurred when she was mistakenly directed back into the vaccination queue after her initial jab, receiving a second shot in her left shoulder.
Despite the double inoculation, she has not experienced severe side effects, only mild drowsiness and discomfort, though she remains concerned.
Health officials are monitoring her condition, and her son, while not filing a complaint, emphasized the need for increased caution to prevent future errors.
