Symptom narrative

Patient came in requesting pneumococcal vaccine but was given meningococcal vaccine due to misunderstanding/language barrier between assisting technicians and pharmacist and patient. Patient returned to pharmacy the next day stating he may have gotten wrong vaccine, explained again what he came in for and it was discovered he meant to receive the pneumococcal vaccine. The patient reported no vaccine issues from meningococcal just that he would like pneumococcal, which was provided to him.
