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.
#1 most reported symptom for this vaccine
Pyrexia has been reported 82 times in association with Hib Polysaccharide vaccination in VAERS. This represents 29.1% of all 282 reports for this vaccine.
Among these reports, 5 mentioned death (6.10%) and 11 involved hospitalization (13.4%).
Pyrexia is the #1 most frequently reported symptom for Hib Polysaccharide out of 81 total symptoms.
Disclaimer: VAERS reports describe events that occurred after vaccination but do not establish that the vaccine caused the event. Many reported symptoms may be coincidental or related to underlying conditions.
Seeing 82 reports of Pyrexia after Hib Polysaccharide vaccination may seem alarming, but context is critical.
The 6.10% mortality rate among these reports is elevated, but this reflects the severity of the condition itself rather than vaccine causation.
This data comes from the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS), jointly managed by CDC and FDA.
