Two weeks after I got my first Moderna vaccine, I saw a slight pink rash on my arm where I got the chance. Is it an allergy to the shot? Should I get the second chance next week?

In a new letter published in the New England Journal of Medicine, this delayed skin reaction is described in 12 patients who all received the first ingestion of the Moderna vaccine. Most were treated with ice and antihistamines.
