No Medical History information was reported. On 07-Oct-2025, the patient received dose of mRNA-1273.251 (Spikevax LP.8.1 PFS) (Intramuscular use) 1 dosage form. In October 2025, the patient experienced PAIN (She was feverish and sore for 3 days), MALAISE (felt a bit sick afterward) and PYREXIA (She was feverish and sore for 3 days). In October 2025, PAIN (She was feverish and sore for 3 days) and PYREXIA (She was feverish and sore for 3 days) had resolved. At the time of the report, MALAISE (felt a bit sick afterward) outcome was unknown. Concomitant medication was not provided. It was reported that the reporter and his wife had received Moderna's annual Spikevax shot every year. But this time the reporter had noticed that it was no longer called Spikevax. He mentioned it was something like Nexspike or Moderna Spike, which the reporter found wasn't exactly easy to say. However, reporter clarified that this wasn't the main reason he was writing. Reporter explained that he and his wife had gotten their shots the previous Tuesday and everything had gone fine at first, although his wife had felt a bit sick afterward. She had been feverish and sore for three days. According to reporter, she had received the Spikevax version, while he had noticed that he had received a different one, though he wasn't sure why. He said her reaction had been similar to past years after vaccination. He also expressed curiosity about his service dog, who had started acting sick around the same time. He said she had seemed to have flu-like symptoms and had been lethargic for two to three days. He wanted to know if it was possible that she had caught something from his wife, as this hadn't happened before and had only occurred after their vaccination schedule. He suspected they might have caught something at the clinic and passed it on to dog, possibly through his wife since her response to the vaccine had seemed worse. It was unknown if the patient experienced any additional symptoms or events . Treatment medication was not reported. This case was linked to US-MODERNATX, INC.-MOD-2025-790254 (E2B Linked Report).
