    Yes, antivaxxers like to portray VAERS as the be-all and end-all of vaccine safety monitoring because it’s a passive monitoring system. They ignore the three active monitoring systems that exist in addition to VAERS.https://twitter.com/PeterHotez/status/1218742456772112384 …

    VAERS has no settlements, and through @CDCgov @US_FDA @HHSGov we have four parallel and reinforcing vaccine safety monitoring system in the US: VAERS, PRISM, VSD, CISA, making us the most robust system in the world. https://twitter.com/JD100JD100/status/1218740434236776448 …

        It's almost as if they have absolutely NO IDEA what they are talking about. Kind of like those insisting a comet will hit earth but we can't see it because it's coming underneath where we can't see it.

        Anti-vaxxers thrive on fear, lies and ignorance (and greed of those that profit from Big sCAM). @antivax loves VAERS because they can use it as a prop to make false claims about vaccines. Vaccines are safe. Vaccines save lives.

        because they don't know that they exist or they deliberately ignore them since they're not making their case!

        And don't notice the VAERS disclaimer which includes "VAERS reports alone cannot be used to determine if a vaccine caused or contributed to an adverse event or illness. The reports may contain information that is incomplete, inaccurate, coincidental, or unverifiable..."
