Underreporting of vaccine reactions  

post #1 of 2
Thread Starter 
I am looking for the documentation showing that there is underreporting of vaccine reactions. Can someone provide a link to this information?

the CDC has said that many reactions are not reported-- something like 95% or something. OF course, with the wide range of reactions from redness at injection site to fussiness to allergic reaction etcetc, it is probably very hard to tell how useful that number is. Plus a lot of the time you talking about an age group that cannot communicate verbally. So, a mom might connect crying with the vaccine when it isn't the case or pain might be present but the child is unable to communicate it and crying may be thought to be connected to something else.

nak so this might be long run on sentence that makes no sense


i am sure someone will give the link to the cdc statement
