The Department of Health and Human Services announced Thursday that it has launched a clinic dedicated to studying “patients experiencing health problems following vaccination," as it looks to gather better evidence about potential vaccine-related injuries.

The department said it launched a series of actions this week to better understand, identify, document, investigate and respond to health problems reported following vaccination, including requiring electronic health records to capture vaccine-related events.

“We must listen to patients and families who report vaccine injuries—not dismiss or gaslight them,” HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. said in a statement. “President Trump and I are building a health system that takes them seriously, follows the evidence, and uses what we learn to make vaccines safer. This is how we earn back trust in our public health institutions.”
