Clinical narrative: Rheumatoid arthritis; kidney failure /dialysis; could not walk due to severe joint pains; fever; severe joint aches; severe body aches; extreme chills; This spontaneous case was reported by a consumer (subsequently medically confirmed) and describes the occurrence of RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS (Rheumatoid arthritis) and RENAL FAILURE (kidney failure /dialysis) in a 64-year-old male patient who received mRNA-1273 (Moderna COVID-19 Vaccine) for COVID-19 vaccination. The occurrence of additional non-serious events is detailed below.     Concurrent medical conditions included Arthritis (Rheumatoid arthritis).    On 17-Feb-2021, the patient received first dose of mRNA-1273 (Moderna COVID-19 Vaccine) (Intramuscular) 1 dosage form. On 21-Feb-2021, the patient experienced PYREXIA (fever), ARTHRALGIA (severe joint aches), MYALGIA (severe body aches) and CHILLS (extreme chills). On 05-Mar-2021, the patient experienced RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS (Rheumatoid arthritis) (seriousness criteria hospitalization and medically significant) and RENAL FAILURE (kidney failure /dialysis) (seriousness criteria hospitalization and medically significant). On an unknown date, the patient experienced GAIT INABILITY (could not walk due to severe joint pains). The patient was hospitalized from 05-Mar-2021 to 15-Mar-2021 due to RENAL FAILURE and RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS. On 15-Mar-2021, RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS (Rheumatoid arthritis) and RENAL FAILURE (kidney failure /dialysis) outcome was unknown. At the time of the report, GAIT INABILITY (could not walk due to severe joint pains), PYREXIA (fever), ARTHRALGIA (severe joint aches), MYALGIA (severe body aches) and CHILLS (extreme chills) outcome was unknown. Not Provided    DIAGNOSTIC RESULTS (normal ranges are provided in parenthesis if available): On 21-Feb-2021, Body temperature: 103 (High) 103 Fahrenheit. In 2021, White blood cell count: high (High) High.     The action taken with mRNA-1273 (Moderna COVID-19 Vaccine) (Intramuscular) was unknown.       No concomitant medications were reported. Patient was prescribed Mobic at urgent care. In urgent care blood work was performed, white blood cells were elevated and inflammatory rate increased. Two doses of antibiotics ((product name not provided) were prescribed.  Based on the information provided, a causal association between the event of renal failure and the administration of  mRNA-1273 - is assessed as not related as event was reported as due to treatment with Mobic and more likely pre-existing. Based on temporal association between the other reported events and the product, causal relationship cannot be excluded. Pyrexia, arthralgia, myalgia and chills are consistent with the product known safety profile.; Sender's Comments: Based on the information provided, a causal association between the event of renal failure and the administration of  mRNA-1273 - is assessed as not related as event was reported as due to treatment with Mobic and more likely pre-existing.
