Podcast 665: Allergic Reactions after COVID Vaccinations

Contributor: Peter Bakes, MD

Educational Pearls:

  • Incidence 2.5-10 per million people occurring primarily in those with environmental allergens
  • Typically occurs with mRNA vaccines in lipid nanoparticles (Moderna/Pfizer) rather than the adenovirus vaccine (J&J)
  • Recommendation is to forego 2nd dose of the mRNA vaccine and instead get the adenovirus vaccine after weighing the risks and benefits
