There are two adverse events. First is that the skilled nursing facility (SNF) clinical staff incorrectly listed the patient as unvaccinated when requesting SNF patients be vaccinated by the local health department. The patient was previously vaccinated with Moderna on 1/26 (Lot # 004M20A). This should be listed as a vaccine administration error. Second- Approximately, 1 week after being vaccinated with Janssen on 3/24/2021, the patient tested positive for COVID-19 (4/1/21). At the time, the patient was documented to have an asymptomatic infection, picked up on weekly surveillance testing due to a large outbreak at the nursing facility. I was informed on 6/9/21 that the patient had been referred to hospice on 5/4/21 and died on 5/6/21. The medical records are not yet available (pending from the SNF and hospice agency) but the referral was made due to her COVID illness leading to worsening of her general health status. During this period from 4/1 to 5/4, she remained at the SNF. Notably, she was not hospitalized and did not present to the emergency department for care.
