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.

About Injection site vesicles Reports
Injection site vesicles has been reported 3,820 times in VAERS from 1990 to 2026.
Of these reports, 2 were associated with death (0.05%) and 72 involved hospitalization.
The overall serious outcome rate (death or hospitalization) for reports mentioning Injection site vesicles is 1.9%.
Understanding Injection site vesicles in VAERS
•Temporal association only: These reports show Injection site vesicles occurred after vaccination, not necessarily because of vaccination.
•Background rates matter: Many symptoms occur naturally at baseline rates in the population, unrelated to vaccination.
•Reporting variability: Medical terminology may be used differently by various healthcare providers and over time.
•Investigation needed: High-frequency reports may trigger further epidemiological studies to determine causation.
