Symptom narrative

incorrect meningococcal vaccine given, patient was supposed to receive meningococcal conjugate (menveo) vaccination, doctor placed order for meninogocccal B vaccine (bexsero), I did not double check the dosing and went according to doctor's orders and administered Men B (Bexsero) vaccine. Parent was advised of the below per pediatrician "Patient received bexsero vaccine instead of menveo vaccine today. Parent was notified by telephone at 11 am on 8/8/2025. Bexsero vaccine is approved for high risk patients age 10 years and older.I counseled parent that patient will have protection against meningitis bacterial strain B."
