Another case of severe allergy to the Pfizer vaccine registered in the US.

An allergic reaction occurred in a medical worker following the administration of the coronavirus infection vaccine.

A healthcare worker in New York City suffered a severe allergic reaction after being vaccinated against a coronavirus with a Pfizer drug. This was announced on Wednesday, December 23, by Newsweek magazine, citing a source.

According to the publication, the health worker’s condition is now assessed as stable. This is the first case of an allergic reaction to a drug in the city, authorities said.

“The use of vaccines leads to side effects and the appearance of allergic reactions, such cases are known and occur”, – explains the magazine to the municipal administration of health and mental hygiene.

The New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene emphasized that several side effects do occur, but they are extremely rare.

At the same time, the leadership of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) urged healthcare workers to monitor those who received the COVID-19 vaccine for 15 minutes afterwards or 30 minutes if they have a history of severe allergies. .

Recall that in the United States an allergic reaction was detected in five people to the COVID vaccine from Pfizer Inc and BioNTech.

The allergic reaction was similar to that of two healthcare workers after vaccinations in the UK. Allergy sufferers were then advised to avoid the Pfizer vaccine.
