MVEC has recently updated its reference page on vaccine-associated enhanced disease (VAED).

VAED is a rare phenomenon where a person who has been vaccinated experiences a more severe clinical presentation of an infection than would normally be seen in an unvaccinated person.

The new page includes more detailed information on VAED diagnosis, and vaccines that have been associated with VAED.
