In New York, an expired drug was used for vaccination against coronavirus.
Almost 900 residents of an American city were vaccinated with an expired Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine, foreign media reported.
Doctors found that the drug had been in the freezer for much longer than allowed.
However, the error did not lead to serious consequences.
The only thing the experts asked the patients to do was to undergo the vaccination procedure again.
Doctors are confident that none of the people vaccinated with an expired drug will face health problems.

Over the entire period of the pandemic, 33.4 million Americans were diagnosed with coronavirus infection.
The disease has caused the death of almost 600 thousand patients in the United States.
However, mass vaccination continues in the country. More than 170 million US citizens have received at least one shot.
