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.

•Investigation needed: High-frequency reports may trigger further epidemiological studies to determine causation.
