    abstract = "Given the high-stakes nature of healthcare decision-making, we aim to improve the efficiency of human annotators rather than replacing them with fully automated solutions. We introduce a new comprehensive resource, SYMPTOMIFY, a dataset of annotated vaccine adverse reaction reports detailing individual vaccine reactions. The dataset, consisting of over 800k reports, surpasses previous datasets in size. Notably, it features reasoning-based explanations alongside background knowledge obtained via language model knowledge harvesting. We evaluate performance across various methods and learning paradigms, paving the way for future comparisons and benchmarking."
