Same syringe and needle used to inoculate more people with the vaccine against Covid-19. It is the singular, how incredible, event that took place in the mountains of Styria, in Austria, precisely in the village of Muerzzuschlag where a doctor vaccinated 59 employees of a steel processing company with the same syringe.
Vaccination was carried out to employees of the Voestalpine Boehler Bleche company. The Prosecutor of Leoben and in the meantime investigate the matter the doctor has been suspended. The fact was discovered because, following a check carried out at the end of each vaccination session, the number of medical devices used by the doctor in charge of vaccinations – doses of vaccines and material used (syringes) – did not correspond to the number of people vaccinated.
Only after a second more detailed investigation, the professional stated that, perhaps, she had used the same syringe and the same needle several times in some cases. The next first follow-up exam on more than 50 people fortunately, he revealed no infection.

The complaint was made by the same company Voestalpine Boehler Bleche who informed the competent authorities of Bruck an der Mur and subsequently the judiciary of Leoben. “For Voestalpine, the safety and health of its employees are always the top priority,” said company spokesman Peter Felsbach. With the best of intentions, we have entrusted the Vamed Group with carrying out the vaccination to which the Kapfenberg occupational medicine center belongs, a well-known provider of services in the health sector ».
«It is incomprehensible, we ask for clarification on how such an error can happen – says the spokesman for Voestalpine -. An external doctor was instructed to be available for up to 60 employees for those affected. In addition, a personal interview was held with everyone ».
