“Whenever you deal with a situation – with an intervention, however rare, you can never guarantee someone that you would not have an allergic reaction,” Dr. Fauci told CBSN recently. “People who are prone to an allergic reaction, particularly anaphylactic reaction, are more likely to have an allergic reaction to a vaccine. But if you look at the allergic reactions recently reported in the scientific literature, there are between four and five per million vaccinations with Pfizer and between two and three per million vaccinations with Moderna. If you have a history of allergic reaction – if it is an allergic reaction to something that you definitely know is in the vaccine, you may want to wait for another vaccine, but if you only have one person generally allergic to food and other things, you can be vaccinated, but you should do so in a situation where you are in a place where someone can deal with and treat an allergic reaction, rather than vaccinating it in a place where, if you have an allergic reaction, there is no way to stop it. be treated, but it is an unusual occurrence, not rare based on the numbers I just said. “
