WHAT ARE THE RISKS OF COMIRNATY (COVID-19 VACCINE, mRNA) AND THE
PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE?
Pfizer:
There is a chance that the vaccine could cause a severe allergic reaction. A
severe allergic reaction would usually occur within a few minutes to one hour after
getting a dose of the vaccine. For this reason, your vaccination provider may ask you to
stay at the place where you received your vaccine for monitoring after vaccination.
Signs of a severe allergic reaction can include:
• Difficulty breathing
• Swelling of your face and throat
• A fast heartbeat
• A bad rash all over your body
• Dizziness and weakness Myocarditis (inflammation of the heart muscle) and pericarditis (inflammation of the
lining outside the heart) have occurred in some people who have received
COMIRNATY (COVID-19 Vaccine, mRNA) or the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine.
In most of these people, symptoms began within a few days following receipt of the
second dose of vaccine. The chance of having this occur is very low. You should seek
medical attention right away if you have any of the following symptoms after receiving
the vaccine:
• Chest pain
• Shortness of breath
• Feelings of having a fast-beating, fluttering, or pounding heart Side effects that have been reported with COMIRNATY (COVID-19 Vaccine, mRNA) or
the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine include:
• severe allergic reactions
• non-severe allergic reactions such as rash, itching, hives, or swelling of the face
• myocarditis (inflammation of the heart muscle)
• pericarditis (inflammation of the lining outside the heart)
• injection site pain
• tiredness
• headache
muscle pain
• chills
• joint pain
• fever
• injection site swelling
• injection site redness
• nausea
• feeling unwell
• swollen lymph nodes (lymphadenopathy)
• diarrhea
• vomiting
• arm pain These may not be all the possible side effects of the vaccine. Serious and unexpected
side effects may occur. The possible side effects of the vaccine are still being studied in
clinical trials.
Moderna:
There is a chance that the Moderna COVID-19 Vaccine could cause a severe allergic
reaction. A severe allergic reaction would usually occur within a few minutes to one hour after
getting a dose of the Moderna COVID-19 Vaccine. For this reason, your vaccination provider
may ask you to stay at the place where you received your vaccine for monitoring after
vaccination. Signs of a severe allergic reaction can include:
• Difficulty breathing
• Swelling of your face and throat
• A fast heartbeat
• A bad rash all over your body
• Dizziness and weakness Myocarditis (inflammation of the heart muscle) and pericarditis (inflammation of the lining
outside the heart) have occurred in some people who have received the Moderna COVID-19
Vaccine. In most of these people, symptoms began within a few days following receipt of the
second dose of the Moderna COVID-19 Vaccine. The chance of having this occur is very low.
You should seek medical attention right away if you have any of the following symptoms after
receiving the Moderna COVID-19 Vaccine:
• Chest pain
• Shortness of breath
• Feelings of having a fast-beating, fluttering, or pounding heart Side effects that have been reported in a clinical trial with the Moderna COVID-19 Vaccine
include:
• Injection site reactions: pain, tenderness and swelling of the lymph nodes in the same arm
of the injection, swelling (hardness), and redness
• General side effects: fatigue, headache, muscle pain, joint pain, chills, nausea and
vomiting, and fever Side effects that have been reported during post-authorization use of the Moderna COVID-19
Vaccine include:
• Severe allergic reactions
• Myocarditis (inflammation of the heart muscle)
• Pericarditis (inflammation of the lining outside the heart) These may not be all the possible side effects of the Moderna COVID-19 Vaccine.
Serious and unexpected side effects may occur. The Moderna COVID-19 Vaccine is still being studied in
clinical trials.
Johnson & Johnson:
WHAT ARE THE RISKS OF THE JANSSEN COVID-19 VACCINE?
Side effects that have been reported with the Janssen COVID-19 Vaccine include:
• Injection site reactions: pain, redness of the skin and swelling.
• General side effects: headache, feeling very tired, muscle aches, nausea, and fever. Severe Allergic Reactions There is a remote chance that the Janssen COVID-19 Vaccine could cause a severe allergic
reaction. A severe allergic reaction would usually occur within a few minutes to one hour after
getting a dose of the Janssen COVID-19 Vaccine. For this reason, your vaccination provider may
ask you to stay at the place where you received your vaccine for monitoring after vaccination.
Signs of a severe allergic reaction can include:
• Difficulty breathing,
• Swelling of your face and throat,
• A fast heartbeat,
• A bad rash all over your body,
• Dizziness and weakness. Blood Clots with Low Levels of Platelets Blood clots involving blood vessels in the brain, lungs, abdomen, and legs along with low levels of
platelets (blood cells that help your body stop bleeding), have occurred in some people who have
received the Janssen COVID-19 Vaccine. In people who developed these blood clots and low levels
of platelets, symptoms began approximately one to two-weeks following vaccination. Reporting of
these blood clots and low levels of platelets has been highest in females ages 18 through 49 years.
The chance of having this occur is remote. You should seek medical attention right away if you
have any of the following symptoms after receiving Janssen COVID-19 Vaccine:
• Shortness of breath,
• Chest pain,
• Leg swelling,
• Persistent abdominal pain,
• Severe or persistent headaches or blurred vision,
Easy bruising or tiny blood spots under the skin beyond the site of the injection.
These may not be all the possible side effects of the Janssen COVID-19 Vaccine. Serious and
unexpected effects may occur. The Janssen COVID-19 Vaccine is still being studied in clinical
trials.
