The only thing she could have been allergic to is PEG, which has been reported on. Those with history of allergic reactions should use caution. It’s highly unlikely hers was anaphylaxis due to the amount of time it took to develop the reaction. Observational data from the MMR report shows the longest time for anaphylaxis to occur was ~150min for the Pfizer vaccine, with most within 15 minutes. Less severe reactions seen up to 20 hours after vaccination, which can include full body rashes and breathing irregularities but not necessarily critical breathing issues (for instance I had breathing irregularities during COVID and wasn’t hospitalized)
Given her IV normal saline and diphenhydramine cocktail she sounded dehydrated and they were actually doing g supportive care only....Nearly die? What other symptoms was she exhibiting that nearly killed her?
I’ve reported patients with similar symptoms to VAERS from our vaccine clinics none of which actually went to the ER, just took fluids and Benadryl at home.
While not common, it’s being observed and those with severe allergies or known allergic reactions or sensitivities need to take the appropriate measures such as hydration and have an EPIpen and Benadryl at home.
It’s interesting they told her that about her second dose. From what I understand even people with (delayed) full body rashes are OK to get the second dose. Although scary, delayed skin reactions are always non serious and not anaphylaxis. They must have administered oxygen and worried about her airway? Did they see swelling in her airway? Interesting recommendation.
