COVID-19 vaccine side effects among nursing home residents and staff Despite proven vaccine effectiveness, vaccine hesitancy among NH staff has been a considerable barrier to vaccination, with majority of hesitant staff reporting concerns about adverse effects (70%). 5 For NH residents, scarce information about adverse effect data exists as vaccine trials have generally excluded them, although COVID-19 vaccine administration has been deemed to be safe in older adults. [6] [7] [8] [9] In this prospective observational study, we examined the Adverse effects were reported less frequently with the first dose (63% of residents and 84% of staff) than with the second dose (92% of residents vs. 99% of staff) ( Table 1)
