V-safe

V-safe is a smartphone-based safety monitoring system developed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) for people who receive COVID-19 vaccines. After vaccination, users can report any side effects or health issues through V-safe. This immediate feedback helps health officials monitor vaccine safety and quickly identify any potential problems. Participants receive reminders for follow-up surveys, ensuring ongoing data collection. By sharing their experiences, individuals contribute to a larger understanding of vaccine effects, enhancing public confidence in the safety of COVID-19 vaccines.
