Several GlaxoSmithKline Inc. vaccines: Potential Risk of Underdosing

Issued May 1, 2018
Issue
There have been reports of leakage from CCT syringes used for several GlaxoSmithKline Inc. vaccines during vaccine preparation or administration. Although the leakage does not pose a concern for the vaccine sterility, there is a potential risk of underdosing associated with administration of a vaccine from a leaking syringe that may leave patients inadequately protected from disease after vaccination.
