While our @nejm.org Perspective focuses on #FAERS (FDA's passive drug safety surveillance system), the limitations to this database also apply to VAERS for vaccines. Current FDA leadership is using VAERS to make conclusions despite its many limitations & no scientific explanation. #MedSky
Aaron Rupar @atrupar Ron Johnson: "In 56 years of tracking Tylenol, there have been 39,540 death reported to FAIRS. That's 706 per year. For ivermectin -- remember the one that they said was so dangerous? -- in 29 years reporting, 493 deaths, 17 a year."
- Who sends reports to FAERS? Healthcare professionals, consumers, and manufacturers submit reports to FAERS. FDA receives voluntary reports directly from healthcare professionals (such as physicians, pharmacists, nurses and others) and consumers (such as patients, family members, lawyers and others). Healthcare professionals and consumers may also report to the products’ manufacturers. If a manufacturer receives a report from a healthcare professional or consumer, it is required to send the report to FDA as specified by regulations. + How can I report an adverse event or medication error to FDA? + Can mandatory reporters submit adverse events electronically? - Does FAERS data have limitations? Yes, FAERS data does have limitations. First, there is no certainty that the reported event (adverse event or medication error) was due to the product. FDA does not require that a causal relationship between a product and event be proven, and reports do not always contain enough detail to properly evaluate an event. Furthermore, FDA does not receive reports for every adverse event or medication error that occurs with a product. Many factors can influence whether an event will be reported, such as the time a product has been marketed and publicity about an event. There are also duplicate reports where the same report was submitted by a consumer and by the sponsor. Therefore, FAERS data cannot be used to calculate the incidence of an adverse event or medication error in the U.S. population.
🆘
Sen Ron Johnson has been misusing the FAERS "data" since COVID.
The FDA's website has always said he should not use their info this way.

Pubs of @fda.gov #FAERS data have exploded since the making it public in 2018. The nature of spontaneous reports is such that these analyses should not be interpreted as causal & generally are not useful for patients & clinicians. Details at: www.medcentral.com/dermatology/...
