Safety Monitoring of Bivalent COVID-19 mRNA Vaccine Booster Doses Among Persons Aged ≥12 Years — United States, August 31–October 23, 2022
On August 31, 2022
FDA authorized bivalent, Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna
mRNA encoding the spike protein from original strain of SARS-CoV-2,
and from Omicron BA.4 and BA.5
Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) recommended,
all persons ≥12 years receive an age-appropriate bivalent mRNA booster dose

Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS)
Total data, August 31–October 23, 2022
14.4 million received a bivalent Pfizer-BioNTech
8.2 million adults (≥18 years) a bivalent Moderna booster dose
v-safe, among the 211,959 registrants (aged ≥12 years)
August 31–October 23, 2022
Reported in the week after vaccination
Injection site reactions, 60.8%
Systemic reactions, 54.8%
Fewer than 1% of v-safe registrants reported receiving medical care
Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS)
5,542 reports of adverse events after bivalent booster vaccination (≥12 years)
95.5% of reports were nonserious
4.5% were serious events
Health care providers and patients can be reassured that adverse events reported after a bivalent booster dose are consistent with those reported after monovalent doses.
