‘In the US, at least 29 people vaccinated with mRNA-based Covid-19 shots developed anaphylaxis, which is a life-threatening allergic reaction.’
The median interval from vaccine receipt to symptom onset was 13 minutes, according to an update by the Centers For Disease Control and Prevention, America's premier public health agency that is returning to its pre-eminent role in health communications after months of political interference from the Donald Trump White House. The CDC is recommending that vaccine locations must screen for contraindications before the shots are given and must have supplies of epinephrine ready to treat people experiencing anaphylaxis symptoms.
Around 80 percent of patients who reported anaphylaxis symptoms had a documented history of allergies or allergic reactions, including to drugs or medical products, foods, and insect stings.
New Therapeutic Target For Severe Allergic Reactions Identified
A motor protein Kinesis-1 that controls the release of inflammatory factors that triggers fatal allergic reactions has been identified.
