The CDC and FDA are announcing VAERS 2.0. This new version of the adverse event reporting system includes a new reporting form and a new website that allows you to:
- Easily submit a VAERS report electronically.
- Access VAERS data.
- Learn more about how CDC and FDA monitor the safety of vaccines.
There are now TWO ways to report an adverse event following vaccination:
- Use the online reporting tool.
- Complete a VAERS PDF form and upload it to the new VAERS website
By the end of 2017, CDC and FDA will phase out the old VAERS-1 paper form and fully transition to the new VAERS 2.0 electronic submission process. Accommodations will be made for persons unable to submit reports electronically. Additional assistance is available via email at info@vaers.org or by phone at 1-800-822-7967. A VAERS 2.0 video is coming soon.
