evidence: Side effects of COVID-19 vaccines in Switzerland – update Bern, 09.04.2021 - 1174 reports of suspected adverse reactions to COVID-19 vaccines in Switzerland evaluated: As at 6 April 2021, Swissmedic, in collaboration with the regional pharmacovigilance centres (in particular with the Ticino EOC reference centre), has evaluated 1174 reports of suspected adverse drug reactions (ADR) to COVID-19 vaccinations in Switzerland. The reports corroborate the side effects profile identified during the authorisation studies and described in the medicinal product information. They do not alter the positive ratio of benefits to risks of the vaccines used. [...] The reports of adverse reactions received and analysed to date do not change the positive benefit-risk profile of the COVID-19 vaccines. The reports now provide us with a clearer picture of the vaccines’ safety in daily use. This largely confirms their known side effects profile. Known side effects of COVID-19 vaccines are listed in the continually updated medicinal product information texts published on www.swissmedicinfo.ch.
