That's absolutely wrong.
Reporting to VAERS is voluntary. Doctors in your typical HMO practice are extremely busy and highly time managed. They need to be keeping up a high rate
of patient visits and doing all the paperwork for each of them.
They aren't paid to report to VAERS, it's just another thing to do in a very
busy and exhausting day.
If you want to make VAERS into actually usable data doctors should have to report any significant internal change to a patient's health within 72 hours of the vaccine administration, and non-doctor reports should have their own channel because the data quality is likely to be lower. Doctors also need to have some time credit from their employer for handling VAERS reporting.
I'm commenting confidently because I know of what I speak.
- maximinus_thrax 3y ago> Reporting to VAERS is voluntary. You should stop posting this garbage. It's easily verifiable that you're talking out of your ass: https://www.cdc.gov/vaccinesafety/ensuringsafety/monitoring/vaers/reportingaes.html https://www.cdc.gov/vaccinesafety/ensuringsafety/monitoring/... Healthcare providers who administer COVID-19 vaccines are required to report the following to VAERS: Vaccine administration errors whether or not associated with an adverse event (AE). If the incorrect mRNA COVID-19 vaccine product was inadvertently administered for a second dose in a 2-dose series, VAERS reporting is required. If a different product from the primary series is inadvertently administered for the additional or booster (third dose), VAERS reporting is required. VAERS reporting is not required for the following situations: If a mixed series is given intentionally (e.g., due to hypersensitivity to a vaccine ingredient) Mixing and matching of booster doses intentionally (as of October 21, 2021, mixing and matching of booster doses is allowed) Serious AEs regardless of causality. Serious AEs per FDA are defined as: Death A life-threatening AE Inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization A persistent or significant incapacity or substantial disruption of the ability to conduct normal life functions A congenital anomaly/birth defect An important medical event that based on appropriate medical judgement may jeopardize the individual and may require medical or surgical intervention to prevent one of the outcomes listed above Cases of myocarditis after a Pfizer-BioNTech, Moderna, Novavax, or Janssen COVID-19 vaccine Cases of pericarditis after a Pfizer-BioNTech, Moderna, Novavax, or Janssen COVID-19 vaccine Cases of Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome in children and adults Cases of COVID-19 that result in hospitalization or death
