Help promote V-safe to older adults who receive an RSV vaccine.

Older adults who get an RSV vaccine can use V-safe to tell CDC how they feel after vaccination

Adults 60 years and older can now register for V-safe after receiving a respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) vaccine to tell CDC how they feel after vaccination. Using a computer, smartphone, or tablet, they can go to vsafe.cdc.gov to complete confidential quickly and easily share with CDC how they feel after getting vaccinated (for example, if they are experiencing injection site pain or a fever). The data collected through V-safe help CDC monitor potential vaccine side effects and inform the public about what to expect following vaccination.

V-safe, one of several systems CDC uses to closely monitor the safety of vaccines, will soon be available for pregnant people who receive a maternal RSV vaccine and for people ages 6 months and older who receive an updated COVID-19 vaccine.

Help promote V-safe:

• Ask your patients to sign up for V-safe at vsafe.cdc.gov.
• Share V-safe factsheets with instructions on how to register and complete health check-ins.
• Hang a V-safe poster near vaccination areas.
