Thalamic stroke

Symptom narrative

As per incident report received from PCP Physician: Pt suffered a R thalamic stroke 2 days after coadministration of COVID and high dose flu. There is a slight increase risk of nonhemorrhagic stroke when high dose flu and bivalent COVID vaccines specifically are given together, but there is no specific recommendation against doing so given the increased benefit of immunization with both vaccines. Of note, the increased risk appears to come from the high dose flu, not the COVID vaccine specifically, as standard dose flu co-administered with COVID vaccine does not have this risk. Pt seen at hospital.
