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.
#149 most reported symptom for this vaccine
White blood cell count increased has been reported 58 times in association with Td vaccination in VAERS. This represents 0.3% of all 20,366 reports for this vaccine.
Among these reports, 1 mentioned death (1.72%) and 38 involved hospitalization (65.5%).
White blood cell count increased is the #149 most frequently reported symptom for Td out of 950 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 58 reports of White blood cell count increased after Td vaccination may seem alarming, but context is critical.
The mortality rate of 1.72% warrants monitoring, though VAERS deaths represent temporal associations, not confirmed causal links.
