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.
#189 most reported symptom for this vaccine
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease has been reported 135 times in association with COVID-19 Bivalent (Moderna) vaccination in VAERS. This represents 0.3% of all 42,946 reports for this vaccine.
Among these reports, 10 mentioned death (7.41%) and 117 involved hospitalization (86.7%).
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is the #189 most frequently reported symptom for COVID-19 Bivalent (Moderna) out of 2434 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 135 reports of Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease after COVID-19 Bivalent (Moderna) vaccination may seem alarming, but context is critical.
The 7.41% 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.
