These translate to 0.78 cases of ADEM per million doses and 1.82 cases of transverse myelitis per million doses[6]. Analysis of the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) in the United States revealed that among 900,522 reports between 2020-2022, the most common serious symptoms were headache (15.68%), pyrexia (13.56%), and fatigue (13.54%)[3].
