MAIN ADVERSE EVENTS


 

Even though the TGA Database of Adverse Event Notifications (DAEN) is starting to show adverse events reports, it is important to acknowledge...

Many people will not report adverse events directly to the TGA if they are told or consider the adverse events to be normal

Based on the surveillance reports, more than 1 in 100 people are going to ED OR their GP Clinic following vaccination

3.6M doses administered x approx. 1% going to ED or GP Clinic =

APPROX. 36,000 ADVERSE EVENT REPORTS SHOULD HAVE BEEN RAISED

The TGA is only reporting 22,031 adverse event reports

THIS IS A DIRECT DEMONSTRATION OF VACCINE ADVERSE EVENT UNDER-REPORTING IN AUSTRALIA
