Most times, vaccines function properly by enhancing the immune system’s ability to fight off disease. There are mild side effects with the majority of vaccines; often presenting flu-like symptoms, including fever, nausea, and body aches. However, there are occasions when vaccines do more harm than good, and patients can have an adverse reaction to the vaccine. About 1 in 100 people report experiencing more serious problems within 6 months of receiving a vaccination ranging from swelling and pain to death; however, no injury should be considered too small when reviewing its correlation with a vaccine injury.
