The first coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) messenger RNA (mRNA) vaccines were introduced to the market in December 2020. Understanding vaccine safety and effectiveness in specific patient populations is of the utmost importance to physicians and patients alike. Therefore, Botwin et al aimed to characterize adverse events after inoculation with COVID-19 mRNA vaccines in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The authors used a prospective study design in which patients with IBD intending to receive, or those who recently received, mRNA vaccines were enrolled. Patients were surveyed 8 days after vaccination or at time of enrollment if vaccination was> 8 days prior. The survey inquired about symptoms and their severity, graded on a scale from mild to severe. For analysis, biologic medications and Janus kinase inhibitors were grouped as “advanced therapy.” A total of 246 patients were enrolled. Of these, 67% had Crohn’s disease and 33% had indeterminate or ulcerative colitis. Patients had received either the Pfizer BNT162b2 (57%) or Moderna mRNA 1273 (43%) vaccine. The results were stratified into events after the first (D1) or second (D2) vaccine dose. Overall, 39% of participants had adverse events after D1 and 62% had events after D2. The most frequently reported adverse events were injection site reactions (38% and 56%), followed by fatigue/malaise (23% and 45%), headaches (14% and 34%), and fever/chills (5% and 29%), each after D1 and D2, respectively. For severe events, defined as affecting activities of daily living or requiring hospitalization, 16 participants reported 27 events after D1, the most common being malaise (3%). Three of these patients required hospitalization: 2 for
