Previously administered products included for COVID-19 prophylaxis: Moderna COVID-19 Vaccine (Received since March or April 2021) in 2021, Spikevax NOS (Fall of 2024, always gotten Moderna COVID-19 vaccine and received vaccines every 6 months) in 2024. Past adverse reactions to the above products included No adverse effect with Moderna COVID-19 Vaccine and Spikevax NOS. In 2025, the patient received dose of mRNA-1273.712 (SPIKEVAX 2024-2025 PFS) (Intramuscular use) 1 dosage form. In September 2025, the patient experienced COVID-19 (came down with covid). On 10-Sep-2025, COVID-19 (came down with covid) had resolved. DIAGNOSTIC RESULTS (normal ranges are provided in parenthesis if available): On 10-Sep-2025, SARS-CoV-2 test: Negative. For mRNA-1273.712 (SPIKEVAX 2024-2025 PFS) (Intramuscular use), the reporter did not provide any causality assessments. Concomitant medication use information was not provided by reporter. The patient always received Moderna COVID-19 vaccines since they first became available and had gotten boosters approximately every 6 months. The patient recently contracted COVID-19. The reporter heard that there was a need to wait before scheduling the vaccine for the fall. The patient had an appointment with a pharmacy to receive a Moderna COVID-19 vaccine on 10-Oct-2025. The patient did not want to wait 3 months after the COVID-19 infection. At the time of the report, the patient tested negative after being positive all last week. The patient was unsure about waiting 3 months as recommended by the CDC. The patient last received a COVID vaccine in the spring and had no complaints. Moderna's vaccine was effective and kept many people of the patient's age out of the hospital. The patient was ready to receive Moderna's vaccine very soon but then contracted COVID last week. The patient received the last COVID-19 vaccine months ago in the spring. It was unknown if the patient experienced any additional symptoms or events. Treatment medication use information was not provided by reporter.
