Data source: VAERS (Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System)

Data through 2026 · Updated quarterly

Built by TheDataProject.ai · © 2026 VaccineWatch

Important: VAERS accepts reports of adverse events following vaccination. For any given report, there is no certainty that the reported event was caused by the vaccine. Reports may contain information that is incomplete, inaccurate, coincidental, or unverifiable. Most reports to VAERS are voluntary, which means they are subject to biases. This data cannot be used to determine if vaccines cause or contribute to adverse events.

⚠️

Important: VAERS reports alone cannot determine if a vaccine caused an adverse event. Reports may contain incomplete, inaccurate, or unverified information. Correlation does not equal causation.

Vaccine Safety Dashboard

Every vaccine tracked by VAERS in one sortable, searchable table. Compare reports, death rates, hospitalization rates, ER visits, and disability reports across all 104 vaccines.

💡 Key Insights From the Data

→Sort by "Death Rate" to see what raw counts hide. Vaccines given to elderly patients (pneumococcal, shingles) have the highest death reporting rates — not because they're dangerous, but because their recipients are older and more fragile.
→COVID-19 vaccines dominate raw counts but have moderate rates. With 1.1M+ reports from 670M+ doses, COVID vaccines actually have lower hospitalization rates per report than many childhood vaccines.
→Discontinued vaccines appear in this data. OPV (oral polio), DTP, and Lyme disease vaccines show reports from decades ago — they were replaced by safer alternatives, partly because of VAERS signal detection.
→62.6% of reports with known outcomes indicate recovery. Most adverse events, even serious ones, are temporary. Use the Recovery Explorer for vaccine-specific recovery data.

How to Use This Dashboard

Click any column header to sort by that metric. Use the search box to filter by vaccine name. Important context: Higher numbers don't mean a vaccine is more dangerous. COVID-19 vaccines top nearly every category because hundreds of millions of doses were administered, generating far more reports than any other vaccine in history. Always consider the denominator before drawing conclusions.

Death and hospitalization rates (per 1,000 reports) provide a better comparison than raw counts, though even these are imperfect — different vaccines are given to different populations (infants, elderly, immunocompromised), and reporting rates vary by era and vaccine type.
