I was thinking about the various ways I’ve observed IM Covid-19 vaccinations being given on various news segments. Quite a variety.
Here is a recent instructional video by an RN. I notice that many of those seen on TV administering IM injections do not appear to comply with these recommendations. They pinch the skin together instead of using the “Z track” method. They appear to inject the material too quickly. They do not leave the syringe in place for 10 seconds following the full plunger down, but usually pull the needle out right
away. And, I have seen those injecting “massage” or rub the area after withdrawing the needle.
On this video, is the injection site a bit high? Medical folks?
There is a lot of information given in the narrative, as well as video.
Anyone here going to sign up to administer vaccine (after we find where it went to and buy it back)?
