> I haven't heard of any anaphylaxis case, which is anecdotal of course but I believe anti-vaxxers would have made a big deal out of it.

People just don't talk about them. They happen, with a much lower (by orders of magnitude) rate than the ones caused by the disease, and AFAIK not distinguishable from the random average without a vaccine (what is very surprising, so I probably have bad data).

Anti-vaxxers do make a big deal about them. But people are very good on ignoring the fact that everybody has a small chance of just dropping dead at any time by random, so most people just don't listen.
