From the VAERS matching of call center cases (loader/vaers_match_*). Only the best match is shown, and only if it scores 8 or more out of 11. The score adds up timing (VAERS received soon after the call center contact), dose and shared symptoms; state only breaks ties. Confidence is high when the score is 8+ and at least 3 points ahead of the runner-up, medium when 5+ and 2 ahead, otherwise low. A match is a likely link, not a confirmed one.

Free text: Since the first shot of the moderna vaccine, I have been having a lot of joint pain. It was very bad after the second dose and to the point I felt like my body was contracting into a large cramp. It was especially bad at my hips, shoulder, feet and hands. All areas hat that have either injuries or arthritis. Im pretty used to pain in those places but I think the vaccine increased my pain and has set me into a arthritis flare up.

Each entry is dated by the survey it was written in (the CDC re-sent the releases with survey dates in 2025); click a date to see that survey response. The CDC cut some text off at about 250 characters: symptoms in every release, and the other two fields in releases 9-12. Those entries are marked "cut off by CDC".
