V-safe After Vaccination Health Checker

On May 19, 2023, CDC closed enrollment in v-safe for COVID-19 vaccines. V-safe was developed specifically for COVID-19 vaccines and has been an essential component of the pandemic vaccine safety monitoring systems that have successfully characterized the safety of the COVID-19 vaccines used in the United States. CDC is developing a new version of v-safe which will allow users to share their post-vaccination experiences with new vaccines.

CDC will continue to monitor the safety of COVID-19 vaccines through its other vaccine safety monitoring systems. V-safe users or others who get vaccinated can report any possible health problems or adverse events following vaccination to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS).

Since its launch in December 2020, 10.1 million v-safe participants completed more than 151 million health surveys about their experiences following COVID-19 vaccination, and v-safe data have been included in more than 20 scientific publications.

COVID-19 vaccines are safe and effective. CDC continues to recommend that everyone ages 6 months and older should stay up to date with COVID-19 vaccines.
