Abstract
Reports of cutaneous reactions to COVID-19 vaccination are increasing as the scope of vaccination expands, and more data are available for study. For example, a recent review of 414 registry patients with dermatologic reactions following mRNA COVID-19 vaccination demonstrated that cutaneous eruptions often occurred in individuals without a dermatologic history and typically arose in the vaccinated arm within days.1 The same study also reported a female predominance of 90% in cutaneous reactions to COVID-19 vaccination.
