Whereas the solution has no negative effect on the human body, fears have been raised over the fact that most of those affected are the elderly who fall in the high-risk category.

After dropping a vial of Pfizer vaccine, the nurse changed the shots and administered saline water to thousands of individuals.
The incident happened at a vaccination centre in Friesland, a rural district near the North Sea Coast.

Sven Ambrosy, a local councillor took to his Facebook page to inform his constituents that among them were around 8600 potentially affected people who will need to retake the vaccine.
He added that the district of Friesland will do everything possible to ensure that the affected people receive their vaccination protection as soon as possible.
“I am totally shocked by this episode,” said Sven.

Jennifer Aniston cuts ties with friends who refuse to get Covid19 jab
Hollywood actress Jennifer Aniston has revealed that she stopped talking to friends who were against getting the Covid-19 jab and were spreading conspiracy theories about it.
The Friends show actress said she is cutting ties with people who are unvaccinated and explained that while everyone is entitled to their own opinion, she doesn't want to associate with them.
"There's still a large group of people that are afraid of the vaccination or anti-vaxxers, or they really don't just listen to actual facts. It's a real shame, and you know I've lost a few people in my daily, weekly routine."
