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.

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 31 reports of Respiratory disorder after Td vaccination may seem alarming, but context is critical.
The mortality rate of 3.23% warrants monitoring, though VAERS deaths represent temporal associations, not confirmed causal links.
