It also says "The report of an adverse event to VAERS is
not documentation that a vaccine caused the event."
Also, on the download page, "However, in general coding terms in VAERS do not change based on the information received during the follow-up process. VAERS data should be used with caution as numbers and conditions do not reflect data collected during follow-up."
Which is just different ways of saying "this data is probably unreliable", no?
