Reuters fact checkers must not have looked at Pfizer's 5.3.6 CUMULATIVE ANALYSIS OF POST-AUTHORIZATION ADVERSE EVENT
REPORTS OF PF-07302048 (BNT162B2) RECEIVED THROUGH 28-FEB-2021
On page 11

There is a whole paragraph about VAEDS and the possibility of it:
"Vaccine-
Associated
Enhanced
Disease (VAED),
including
Vaccine-
Associated
Enhanced
Respiratory
Disease (VAERD) No post-authorized AE reports have been identified as cases of VAED/VAERD, therefore, there is no observed data at this time. An expected rate of VAED is difficult to establish so a meaningful
observed/expected analysis cannot be conducted at this point based on available data. The feasibility of
conducting such an analysis will be re-evaluated on an ongoing basis as data on the virus grows and the
vaccine safety data continues to accrue. Conclusion: VAED may present as severe or unusual clinical manifestations of COVID-19. Overall, there were 37 subjects with suspected COVID-19 and 101 subjects with confirmed COVID-19 following one or both doses of the vaccine; 75 of the 101 cases were severe, resulting in hospitalisation, disability, life-threatening consequences or death. None of the 75 cases could be definitively considered as VAED/VAERD.
In this review of subjects with COVID-19 following vaccination, based on the current evidence, VAED/VAERD remains a theoretical risk for the vaccine. Surveillance will continue."

thanks, yeah, another example of using phrase "fact check" to deliberately mislead. I had thought higher of Reuters.
