Oral or Parenteral
Occasionally, an individual may ingest vaccine accidentally
or may be injected inadvertently by the intramuscular
or subcutaneous route with a dose of vaccine.
These are not recommended routes of
administration. No harm has been recorded from such
events.
Management
It is prudent to follow the individual clinically
and to examine the site of injection for any lesions
in the one to two weeks following administration. If
the injection is subcutaneous, some individuals will
respond with a normal cutaneous response.
