The AMA is urging people not to “crucify” a doctor who gave the incorrect COVID-19 vaccine dose to two nursing home residents.

The residents at Brisbane’s Holy Spirit Nursing Home are being closely monitored and have shown no adverse reactions.

But the doctor, who was the only registered health professional sent to the facility by the Federal Government’s contractor to administer vaccines, is being reported to AHPRA after they were stood down from their job.
