  • Pos A · NNii materials on VAERS are read as presenting a national passive surveillance system that accepts reports widely, links selected cases to clinical follow-up centers, and enables timely signal detection later tested in epidemiologic studies, treated as evidence that serious events are captured and reviewed within established safety systems relative to doses given.“detect rare events in a cost-effective and timely manner”
  • Pos B · NNii materials on VAERS are read as describing a voluntary reporting channel whose primary role is early warning and hypothesis generation rather than complete enumeration, treated as leaving adverse-event tallies dependent on subsequent studies and therefore incomplete as measures of how often serious injuries occur relative to doses administered.“VAERS accepts voluntary reports from everyone”

• Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System - Wikipedia

  en.wikipedia.org · secondary
