TI  - Safety of influenza vaccinations administered in nontraditional settings.
PG  - 4024-7
AB  - Nontraditional settings (NTS) are increasingly utilized for adult vaccination but 
      concerns exist about their safety. We conducted this analysis of 542,445 persons 
      vaccinated at an NTS in Minnesota to assess the safety of influenza vaccination 
      in NTS. A total of 112 adverse events (AEs) were reported, 95 immediate and 17 
      late. Most AEs were mild and resolved within several minutes. 63 persons (.01%) 
      had a vasovagal reaction to vaccination and 22 (.004%) reported an injection site 
      problem. Immediate hypersensitivity reactions were very rare with only 10 (.002%) 
      vaccine recipients having an immediate reaction for which epinephrine was 
      required. Fifteen (.003%) individuals required evaluation in an emergency room or 
      physician's office because of an AE. No deaths were reported. We conclude that 
      influenza vaccine administration in mass vaccination clinics is safe and adverse 
      events after influenza vaccination in NTS are extremely low.
