Because the vaccines are being used under the EUA, severe reactions (related or not) must be reported to VAERS.

I'm thinking because the vaccines do work and prevent the serious onset of COVID 19 in most people.

These vaccines have not been tested for anything other than effectiveness, and even that only to a modest degree. If the testing had been more stringent perhaps they would have discovered how poorly they work. To my knowledge, there has never been so many vaccines released to the general public without substantial testing for side affects and long term affects. We are the long term test group. Can anyone say, with any degree of confidence, what affect these vaccines will have on people 5 years after receiving them? 10 years? 20 years? NO. No one can. And that is a problem.

Historically speaking the idea of a vaccine was not to lessen the effects of a disease but to prevent catching it in the first place. I think people would feel very differently about smallpox or polio vaccines if it merely reduced the severity of the disease but still allowed people to catch it and transmit it to others.
