Medical history was reported as none and concomitant medications were not reported. No known allergies were reported. No other vaccines were received within four weeks of vaccination. No other medications the patient received within 2 weeks of vaccination. The patient was great with no problems after her first vaccination. She had no issues with fatigue, headache, achiness, or nothing. She was elated to get the first vaccine. On 16Mar2021 at 08:00 AM, reported as Tuesday morning, the patient woke up with her face covered with red and blotchy patches across her whole face. She added that it was it was particularly significant on both sides of her cheeks and up to right eye, and really splotchy and blotchy across her face. It came on suddenly. On the same date at night, the patient took 2 benadryl before going to bed at approximately at 11:00 PM. On 17Mar2021, reported as Wednesday, it was much worse and under the right eye there was noticeable puffiness and the red blotchy areas on face were warm/hot to touch. The patient sought medical attention and was prescribed 20 mg of prednisone and to continue to use benadryl. It got worse while in the doctor's office with her forehead also was turning red. She took the first dose of prednisone at approximately 1:00 PM on 17Mar2021. On 18Mar2021, reported as today, she felt like the issue was dissipating and the redness had reduced; however, as the day progressed, the areas became red and inflamed again on both sides of face. The patient wanted to know why her face was erupting and had red splotchy blotches. She also wanted to know how long it could go on. Her physicians were trying Prednisone and antihistamines. She did not know if that was correct, and they do not either. The events were assessed as non-serious. The events resulted in visit to doctor or other healthcare professional office/clinic visit. Therapeutic measures were taken as a result of the events. Treatment medication included Prednisone and Benadryl. Prior to vaccination, the patient was not diagnosed with COVID-19 and since the vaccination, the patient was not tested for COVID-19. The outcome of the events was not recovered.  No follow-up attempts are needed. No further information is expected.
