Victor Smith, a 91-year-old man from Ohio, accidentally took two injections of the COVID vaccine in a single day.
The results were not good, according to the local news station affiliated with NBC WLWT5.
“Your blood pressure at [one] point was 86 out of 47 and therefore they were unable to administer Lasix, which would help the fluid around the lungs because their blood pressure was too low, ”said daughter Dawn Smith Theodore WLWT5. “They told me that he would not survive.”
According to Theodore, Smith felt extremely tired and fell after his first dose of the vaccine on January 22. While in rehab recovering from the fall, he was scheduled to receive another injection on February 25.
“They transported him to take a chance, and when he came back, I spoke to him, he was fine, and then at 3:45 pm, I think a city fireman came in and said he had a chance for Victor, and the nurse said ‘Victor Smith ? ‘ and he said ‘Yes’, so they gave him the room number and sent him to room 202, where my dad was, “said Theodore WLWT5.
According to Theodore, they got the wrong Victor. Result: Smith received two more vaccines after his first in January.
After getting really sick, WLWT5 reports, Smith is recovering now.
The facility that was housing Smith placed the blame for the incident on the first respondents.
“The individual was a Jamestowne Rehabilitation patient where all vaccinations are carried out by trained and properly certified third parties, in this case the Hamilton City Fire Department”, a joint statement from the city of Hamilton and Community First Solutions, received by WLWT5, reading.
“Our thoughts are with the patient and his family, while he continues his recovery,” continues the statement.
After the madness, at least Smith will be able to safely reunite with his children after his recovery, according to the latest CDC guidelines.
