COVID In Colorado: Health Care Workers Who Get Pfizer Vaccine Wear Bio-Button To Detect Side Effects
DENVER (CBS4)- Some health care workers who have received the Pfizer vaccine will be wearing the "Bio-Button." The device was developed by BioIntelliSense in Golden.
It continuously monitors the recipient's vital signs to detect any side effects. The Bio-Button is worn for two days before receiving the vaccine and seven days after.
UCHealth said this is an important step in monitoring at-risk patients on a larger scale.
