February 5, 2021 (Children’s Health Defense) – On January 29, 501 deaths – a subset of 11,249 total adverse events – were reported to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention ( CDC) below COVID-19 vaccinations. The figures reflect reports filed between December 14, 2020 and January 29, 2021.
VAERS is the primary mechanism for reporting adverse reactions to the vaccine in the United States. The reports submitted to VAERS require further investigation before it is possible to confirm that an adverse event was related to a vaccine.
As of January 29, some 35 million people in the United States had received one or both doses of the COVID vaccine. So far, only the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines have received Emergency Use Authorization in the United States by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). By the FDA’s own definition, vaccines are still considered experimental until they are fully licensed.
According to the most recent data, 453 of the 501 reported deaths occurred in the United States. Fifty-three percent of those who died were male, 43% female, the remaining death reports did not include the sex of the deceased. The average age of people who died was 77 years old, the youngest reported death was 23 years old. The Pfizer vaccine was taken by 59% of those who died, while the Moderna vaccine was taken by 41%.
The most recent data also included 690 reports of anaphylactic reactions to Pfizer or Moderna vaccines. Of these, the Pfizer vaccine accounted for 76% of reactions and the Modern vaccine for 24%.
As The Defender reported today, a 56-year-old woman in Virginia died on January 30, hours after receiving her first dose of the Pfizer vaccine. Doctors told Drene Keyes’ daughter that her mother died of sudden pulmonary edema, probably caused by anaphylaxis. The death is being investigated by the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner and the CDC.
Last week, the CDC told USA TODAY that, based on “initial safety data from the first month” of the COVID-19 vaccination, the vaccines are “as safe as the studies suggested they would be” and that “everyone who had a allergic response was successfully treated and no other serious problems appeared among the first 22 million people vaccinated.
Other vaccine injury reports updated this week at VAERS include 139 cases of facial asymmetry or Bell’s palsy symptoms and 13 spontaneous abortions.

The states that reported the most deaths were: California (45), Florida (22), Ohio (25), New York (22) and KY (22).
The batch numbers of the Modern vaccine associated with the highest number of deaths were: 025L20A (20 deaths), 037K20A (21 deaths) and 011J2A (16 deaths), 025J20A (16 deaths). For Pfizer, the batch numbers associated with most death reports were: EK5730 (10 deaths), EJ1685 (23 deaths), EL0140 (19 deaths), EK 9231 (17 deaths) and EL1284 (13 deaths). For 135 of the reported deaths, the batch numbers were unknown.
Clinical trials suggested that almost all of the benefits of the COVID vaccination and the vast majority of injuries were associated with the second dose.
While the numbers in the VAERS database are worrying, according to a study by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, the actual number of adverse events is likely to be significantly higher. VAERS is a passive surveillance system that relies on the willingness of individuals to send reports voluntarily.
According to the VAERS website, healthcare providers are required by law to report to VAERS:
- Any adverse events listed in the VAERS table of reportable events after vaccination that occur within the specified period of time after vaccination
- An adverse event listed by the vaccine manufacturer as a contraindication to new doses of the vaccine
The CDC says that healthcare providers are strongly encouraged to report:
- Any adverse event that occurs after administration of a licensed vaccine in the United States, whether or not it is clear that a vaccine caused the adverse event
- Vaccine administration errors
However, “within the specified time” means that reactions that occur outside this period may not be reported, in addition to the reactions experienced hours or days later by people who do not report these reactions to their healthcare provider.
Vaccine manufacturers are required to report to VAERS “all adverse events of which they are aware”.
Historically, less than 1% of adverse events have been reported to VAERS, a system that Children’s Health Defense previously referred to as an “abject failure”, including in a December 2020 letter to Dr. David Kessler, former director of FDA and now co-chairman of the COVID-19 Advisory Board and President Biden’s version of Operation Warp Speed.
A critic familiar with VAERS ‘deficiencies openly condemned VAERS at BMJ as “nothing more than a facade and a part of the systematic effort by US authorities to reassure us / cheat us about vaccine safety”.
The CHD calls for full transparency. The child health organization is asking Kessler and the federal government to disclose all clinical trial data and to suspend the use of the COVID-19 vaccine in any group not adequately represented in clinical trials, including the elderly, the frail and anyone with comorbidities.
The CHD is also calling for full transparency in post-marketing data that reports all health outcomes, including new diagnoses of autoimmune diseases, adverse events and deaths from COVID vaccines.
Children’s Health Defense asks anyone who has experienced an adverse reaction to any vaccine to file a report following these three steps.
