Inova COVID Vaccine Consent
Inova COVID Vaccine Consent
I agree to WAIT near the clinic location for 15 minutes after receiving the vaccine. If I or my child have previously had a severe allergic reaction to a vaccine or injectable
medication, I agree to WAIT near the clinic location for 30 minutes after receiving the vaccine.
I understand that the COVID-19 vaccine is a two-part vaccine series. By signing this consent, I am agreeing that I or my child will receive the first and second part of the
vaccine series.
I understand that the common risks associated with the COVID-19 vaccine include but are not limited to pain, redness or swelling at the site of injection, tiredness, headache,
muscle pain, chills, joint pain, fever, nausea, feeling unwell or swollen lymph nodes (lymphadenopathy). I understand that the vaccine may cause a severe allergic reaction
which can include anaphylaxis (difficulty breathing, swelling of the face and throat, a fast heartbeat, a rash all over the body, dizziness and/or weakness ). I understand that
these may not be all the side effects of the COVID-19 vaccine as the vaccine is still being studied in clinical trials. I also understand that it is not possible to predict all possible
side effects or complications which could be associated with the vaccine. I understand that the long-term side effects or complications of this vaccine are not known at this
time.
I understand that the vaccination is being given by Inova Health System Foundation and its affiliates (collectively Inova). The owner and/or operator of this site, their affiliates,
officers, directors, employees and agents expressly disclaim any responsibility for the vaccination. My consent is given in light of this knowledge, and in consideration of Inova
giving the COVID-19 vaccine. I, for myself and my heirs, administrators, trustees, executors, assigns and successors in interest do hereby agree to release and hold harmless
Inova, its subsidiaries, divisions, affiliates, successors, assigns, officers, trustees, employees, vo lunteers and agents from and against any and all demands, damages, losses,
costs, expenses, obligations, liabilities, claims, actions and cause of action (whether any of which is groundless or otherwi se) of any nature whatsoever (including, without
limitation, reasonable attorney’s fees and court costs) by reason of or resulting, in any way, from any and all acts, accidents, eve nts, occurrences, omissions and the like
related to, or arising out of, directly or indirectly, my receipt of this COVID-19 vaccine. Inova makes no warranties, express or implied, including but not limited to, implied
warranties of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose regarding the vaccine or its effectiveness. I acknowledge receipt of Inova’s Notice of Privacy Practi ces.
Medicare Part B Recipients: I understand Inova will process Medicare Part B claims on my behalf and accepts Medicare payment in full. I understand I must present my
Medicare card prior to receiving the vaccine. I understand that if I have assigned my Medicare benefits to a Medicare Advantage Plan (like an HMO or PPO), I must receive my
COVID-19 vaccine shot from my HMO/managed care provider or pay the Inova charge.
Private Insurance Participants: If I have private insurance, I understand that Ino va will not bill my insurance carrier on my behalf, and that I am responsible for paying the
required fee for this vaccine to Inova and for pursuing reimbursement from my health insurance carrier. Inova cannot guarant ee that this service will be reimbursable by
insurance.
I have read and understood “What To Do If You Have A Reaction To The COVID-19 Vaccination” and the “Fact Sheet” by the FDA regarding the COVID-19 Vaccination. I further
understand and agree that Inova is required to submit COVID-19 vaccine administration data to the Virginia Immunization Information System (VIIS), and report moderate and
severe adverse events following vaccination to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS).
I understand and agree to all of the above and I hereby give my consent to the staff of Inova to give me or my child a COVID-19 vaccine.

Most people have side effects from the vaccination, but these usually only last 24 – 48 hours after receipt of the vaccination. A few people may
have no side effects at all. Most people will experience pain, redness and/or soreness at the injection site. Many people will have a headache,
fever, chills, muscle pain and/or fatigue from the vaccine, particularly after the second dose. A few people will have nausea or swollen lymph
nodes (lymphadenopathy).
In rare circumstances, the vaccine may cause a severe allergic reaction which can include anaphylaxis (difficulty breathing, swelling of the fac e
and throat, a fast heartbeat, a rash all over the body, dizziness and/or weakness).
The COVID-19 vaccines are not live virus vaccines so the vaccines cannot infect anyone with COVID-19.
All needles and syringes are sterile, are one-time use and are safely discarded.
According to data, the COVID-19 vaccine has approximately a 94% success rate in completely protecting those who receive it. The remainder
have partial protection and will have greatly lessened symptoms if they do contract COVID-19.
The vaccine will begin to provide protection about one to two weeks after the second shot of the series is given.
At this time, we do not know how long the COVID-19 vaccine is effective for, so you may need future vaccines to remain protected.
While the COVID-19 vaccination does provide protection against infection or greatly lessened symptoms if you contract COVID-19, you should
continue to practice hand hygiene and use appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE).
