The Food and Drug Administration is going to soon release a report detailing an investigation the agency is conducting into deaths among children from COVID-19 vaccines, the agency’s commissioner said on Sept. 4.
Dr. Marty Makary said that officials have been delving into reports submitted to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS), to which people, their doctors, or family members can submit reports of post-vaccination issues.
“We do know at the FDA, because we’ve been looking into the VAERS database self-reports, that there have been children that have died from the COVID vaccine,” Makary said during an appearance on CNN.
