I am pregnant and was given too much flu vaccine. what are possible outcomes of this error?

??too much ??: Unless you received the nasal vaccine,which is not recommended in pregnancy, this is a non issue.Flu vaccine is not living material.It is inactivated (dead) and usually given in the minimum concentration that is shown to trigger immunity.Extra vaccine volume would potentially give more immune response but would otherwise have no significant effect. It does not affect the fetus.
