Description
Summary:immediate and delayed local injection site reactions to mRNA vaccines against SARS-CoV-2 have been previously reported.1–3 However, eczematous cutaneous reactions after COVID-19 mRNA vaccines have only been described once in the literature.4 The previously described patient had moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis on dupilumab and flared after vaccination.
