The CDC Publishes a List of COVID-19 Booster Shot Side Effects
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on Thursday published data listing the most common side effects people reported after receiving boosters of Pfizer’s or Moderna’s two-dose Covid vaccine or a second dose of Johnson & Johnson’s single-dose vaccine.
The data, presented to the agency’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices, is based on submissions to the agency’s text messaging system v-safe and the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System, a national vaccine safety surveillance program.
The advisory group is meeting Thursday to discuss booster shots of Moderna’s and J&J’s vaccine as well as whether people can mix and match the companies’ shots.
