Minnesota residents 65 and older who received their first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine reported on Saturday that they received messages saying their second dose of the vaccine was canceled.

According to the Minnesota Department of Health, the message sent by Primary Bio saying that appointments to Minnesota seniors were canceled was a mistake for the vast majority. The message was originally intended for about 20 Minnesota residents who, due to an error in the Bio Primary system, were able to register for a consultation, although they were not qualified to do so.
