State authorities of the Mexican Institute of Social Security (IMSS) in the state of Coahuila reported on two people who had mild allergic reactions after receiving the COVID-19 vaccine. In addition, they ruled out that the effects of immunization, in both cases, had serious outcomes. On the contrary, they claim, received timely care and are in good health.

Given the rumors that claimed that one of the workers had to be intubated and another would have developed facial paralysis after receiving the first dose of the scheme created by Pfizer and BioNTech, the Coahuila Representation Office of the IMSS issued an information card to clarify the development of the cases and deny these versions.
