Description

Seven authors present a systematic review from two thousand twenty-four on blistering skin diseases reported after COVID-19 vaccination. Vaccines against the virus were developed at record speed and given worldwide. Mass vaccination also surfaced side effects, some involving the skin.

From sixty-two reports, the authors gathered one hundred forty-two cases of autoimmune blistering disease after vaccination. Fifty-nine were pemphigus and eighty-three bullous pemphigoid, two conditions where the immune system attacks the skin's own layers. Patients averaged about seventy-two years old, with symptoms starting roughly eleven days after the shot. Most cases followed one mRNA vaccine brand.
