Not much.
The only live animal is in the first scene where there’s a pig in a cage, the scene is too short to tell if the pig is actually stressed. There’s a recorded pig scream added on top.
However, killed animals might have been used, like in the scene shortly after where a character is eating what looks like fried flesh, or later when we see the insides of the half robot creatures. There were also some remains, including two animal skulls, it’s impossible to know how they were sourced or if they were even real. But they did look realistic, one from a horse/cow and the other from a sheep/goat i’d guess.

I only saw vomit in the beginning and even then, it's transparent like water. Very quickly over. Maybe someone spits or coughs up blood, but definitely no more vomit after the beginning scene

A character spits out alcohol. In the very first shot a character spits/vomits water. When a character attacks another, saliva drips out of his mouth. Later he spits out something possibly blood before being driven into the maze.

when alby is acting aggressively with thomas after being stung, teresa injects him with the serum but you can’t see any needles

after the grievers enter the glade, thomas stabs himself with a stinger but again i don’t think you see the needle.

when the grievers try to sting people in general it is basically with a needle/syringe looking thing

Someone puts a gun to their head, then camera switches away so you don't see anything but hear a gunshot. You see them lying on the floor. There is no blood or anything graphic

it’s not very violent gore, just the occasional fight scene or like blood but not a lot

A video is shown of people being shot and then a main character is shot dead.
