Abstract
Since the introduction of active vaccination against SARS‐CoV‐2 infection, there has been a debate about the risk of developing severe allergic or anaphylactic reactions among individuals with a history of allergy. Indeed, rare cases of severe allergic reactions have been reported in the United Kingdom and North America. By February 2021 a rate of 4,5 severe allergic reactions occurred among 1 million patients vaccinated with the mRNA‐based COVID‐19 vaccines, which is higher than the generally expected rate of severe allergic reactions to vaccinations of around 1 in 1 million.
