A 23-year-old woman who was mistakenly given six doses of the Pfizer BioNTech Covid-19 vaccine has been discharged from the hospital where she was being monitored for any adverse reaction.

一名23歲的女士被誤打了6劑輝瑞的Covid-19疫苗，住院觀察期間沒有出現任何不良反應，目前已經出院。

The woman was administered the vaccine at the Noa hospital in Tuscany, central Italy, on Sunday, hospital spokeswoman Daniella Gianelli told CNN on Monday.

周一，醫(yī)院發(fā)言人丹尼拉·賈內利告訴記者，這名女士于周日在意大利中部托斯卡納的諾亞醫(yī)院接種了疫苗。

The patient, who is in "good health" with no underlying conditions, was kept in the hospital under strict observation for 24 hours and discharged Monday, Gianelli said.

賈內利說，這名患者目前“健康狀況良好”，沒有任何潛在疾病，在醫(yī)院接受了24小時的嚴格觀察，周一已經出院。

A health worker accidentally filled a syringe with an entire bottle of the vaccine, containing a total of six doses, and only realized her mistake shortly after the shot was administered.

事情發(fā)生時，一名醫(yī)務人員不小心將6劑疫苗抽滿了注射器，在注射后不久才意識到自己的錯誤。

Doctors will continue to monitor the patient's immune response to the "massive dose of vaccine," the spokeswoman said.

這位女發(fā)言人說，醫(yī)生將繼續(xù)監(jiān)測病人對“大劑量疫苗”的免疫反應。

The patient was entitled to get the vaccine before other people in her age group because she is an intern in the hospital's psychology department, she added.

她補充說，因為這位女士是醫(yī)院心理部門的實習生，所以她有權在同齡人之前接種疫苗。

An internal investigation has been opened, said Gianelli, who added that it was "maybe just human error, definitively not on purpose."

賈內利說，已啟動內部調查，他補充說，這“可能只是人為錯誤，肯定不是故意的。”

At the beginning of April, the Italian government passed a decree making vaccination mandatory for all healthcare and pharmacy workers, with the aim of protecting medical staff, patients and vulnerable people.

4月初，意大利政府通過一項法令，為了保護醫(yī)務人員、病人和弱勢群體，所有醫(yī)療和藥房工作人員必須接種疫苗。

Healthcare workers who refuse the vaccine will be reassigned where possible to roles where they are not in contact with patients. Where that is not an option they now face being suspended without pay.

拒絕接種疫苗的醫(yī)護人員將在可能的情況下被重新分配到不與患者接觸的崗位。否則，他們將面臨無薪停職。
