The pharmacist who administered it, did not identify himself, he did not ask my son any questions prior to injecting him. He took us into a little room that I'm assuming they use as a medical office, and as we were waiting as he prepared the shot, he did not say anything to us, he just injected my sons arm put a bandaid and told us to wait outside the office. I told the pharmacist that my son almost passed out last time and I didn't want him to get up for a few minutes. The pharmacist replied "he can't wait in here, go sit out there". So we sat back in the waiting area and the pharmacist went back inside the pharmacy. A minute later, my son said he didn't feel well, his eyes rolled back in his head and his body started to jerk, and my son lost consciousness. I screamed for help, the pharmacist looked at us through the window but proceeded to do whatever he was doing. He took his time then opened the door and I asked for some water. He closed the door went back inside the pharmacy. Meanwhile my son still is limp in my arms, no color in his face, and sweating all over his body. The pharmacist came out and handed me a sucker and went back inside to work. A few mins went by a pharmacy tech got me some cold water (she was nice) but went back inside as well. I continued to work on getting my sons consciousness back on my own without any assistance. The whole incident went on for over a half hour to 45 mins. Not once did the pharmacist offer help. I needed up calling a Nurse I knew to bring me a blood pressure monitor. This nurse drove over on their own, my sons blood pressure was 86/57, heart rate 56. We stayed with my son until he was stable enough to leave but not once did the pharmacist come out to offer help or check on my son. They even closed up the pharmacy and left while we were still there.
I believe this is very unsafe and unprofessional, and people who are not qualified to assess for emergency situation or adverse reactions should not be administering vaccines let alone Covid vaccines. Please review this case and stop this from happening to other people. This situation should have been handled by medical professionals.
Thank you
