What could potentially happen if an intramuscular vaccine is administered too high?

An intramuscular injection is a technique delivering a medication that is deep into the muscles. If intramuscular is administered too high then the efficacy of the vaccine might be reduced as it is not injected in the right site. It might also cause to injure blood vessels so it should be injected in the correct site and depth.
