Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting Form
An online adverse event reporting form is now available. Healthcare professionals and consumers are encouraged to use this new reporting form.
New reporting form
A new online reporting form for adverse events is now available.
Please use this new form to report all suspected AEFIs for COVID-19 vaccines. You don’t have to be certain that the vaccine caused the event.
Online reporting will help provide a close to real-time safety profile of the COVID-19 vaccines.
Why report adverse events?
Medsafe is actively encouraging healthcare professionals and consumers to report suspected AEFIs for COVID-19 vaccines to:
- add to the information we already know about the safety profile of each vaccine
- act as an early warning system for the identification of previous unrecognised or rare side effects.
Medsafe and regulators across the globe are sharing emerging anonymised safety data.
More information
See the data sheets and consumer medicine information for the expected reactions for approved COVID-19 vaccines.
