a main character coughs up mucus and other fluids near the end- it isn’t particularly vomiting and isn’t too graphic but can still be disturbing to those triggered

There is an MRI scene. It depends on how claustrophobic you are.

Gus and Hazel make out in bed and Hazel is seen topless from behind, and then it cuts immediately to them cuddling naked in bed, covered by a sheet. No scene showing the actual act though.
