![]() Several recipients of the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines have experienced sudden hearing loss, according to data from the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System. Neither the investigator nor Johnson & Johnson concluded that the event was linked to the vaccine. But as more COVID-19 vaccines become available, there are a small but growing number of reports of vaccinated individuals reporting sudden hearing loss - 14 reports among nearly 31,000 entries (or 0.05%) in the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System.Ī Phase 1 clinical trial for Johnson & Johnson’s COVID-19 vaccine included a 21-year-old who experienced sudden hearing loss 34 days after vaccination.
