A new study looking across a large body of research finds further evidence for the safety of vaccines that are Food and Drug Administration-approved and routinely recommended for children, adults and pregnant women. The study updates a vaccine safety review that was released by the federal Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality in 2014. This in-depth analysis found no evidence of increased risk of serious adverse events following vaccines, apart from a few - previously known - associations, said Susanne Hempel, director of the Southern California Evidence Review Center.
The meta-analysis, published in the journal
Vaccine, does not address the safety of COVID-19 vaccines, but summarizes the results of 338 studies of other vaccines commonly given across the lifespan.
