Allergic reactions in some Moderna vaccine recipients caused delays Wednesday at San Diego County’s new “Vaccination Super Station” near downtown’s Petco Park, County health officials confirmed.
…
While allergic reactions are expected in mass vaccination operations, that amount seen Wednesday was slightly higher than expected for that time period so the Super Station slowed down vaccinations so they could investigate, Dr. McDonald said. The site also swapped the vaccines it was using for a new batch out of an abundance of caution, in case the reactions had to do with the original batch.
A county spokesperson confirmed the vaccines associated with the allergic reactions were from Moderna, one of two pharmaceutical companies with FDA-approved COVID-19 vaccines.

“The Super Station has contingencies in place for any type of reaction. It’s too early in the investigation to know exactly what caused the allergic reactions, Dr. McDonald said.”
