This is not true. There is no mechanism for identifying a false report to VAERS. VAERS actively encourages reports from anyone and everyone:

Quote:
Who can report to VAERS
CDC and FDA encourage anyone who experiences (or is made aware) of an adverse event after vaccination to report it to VAERS, even if they are not sure the vaccine caused the problem:

Patients
Parents/family member
Caregivers
Those who administer vaccines
Healthcare providers
Vaccine manufacturers


VAERS will only reach out to the reporting individual for additional information if “essential fields” of the VAERS form are not filled out. VAERS will not contact the reporting individual by phone for follow-up.

VAERS is a valuable data set for someone who actually knows how to work with data. If you can program in R, you could do some pretty cool stuff with the data.

The way you're using it is more-or-less the same thing as pointing to a reddit thread as evidence.
