VAERS: This how bad it is WR. (2023) Is the US’s Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System broken? \| The BMJ << According to VAERS’ standard operating procedure for covid-19, reports must be processed quickly, within days of receipt. But The BMJ has learned that in the face of an unprecedented 1.7 million reports since the rollout of the covid-19 vaccines, VAERS staffing was likely not commensurate with the demands of reviewing serious reports submitted, including reports of death. Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) documents seen by The BMJ suggest that Pfizer has more than 1,000 more full time employees than the CDC, despite the latter’s responsibility for handling adverse event reports for all manufacturers. What’s more, other countries have acknowledged deaths “likely” or “probably” related to mRNA vaccination, whereas the CDC, which says it has reviewed nearly 20,000 reports (far more than other countries) hasn’t acknowledged a single death linked to mRNA vaccine. The BMJ has spoken to more than a dozen people, including a number of physicians and a state medical examiner, who have filed VAERS reports of a serious nature on behalf of themselves or patients and were never contacted by clinical reviewers, or were contacted months later. Some were told conflicting information about updating their report or discouraged from making a report altogether. A group of physicians and advocates have met multiple times with representatives of the FDA between 2021 and 2022 to express their concerns that the system is not operating as intended and signals are being missed. >> Is the US reporting system for vaccine safety broken? - BMJ Group In other words, it's so bad, they have lost track of all the data.
