Clinical narrative: After receiving the shot she experienced the "Covid's bullseye", a circle on her arm at the site of administration; tired; her arm was a little sore; the girl got a rash of the diameter of a lemon on her inner thigh, next day on both legs; This is a spontaneous report from a non-contactable consumer (patient grandmother). A 17-year-old female patient received second dose of bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, Solution for injection, lot number and expiration date were not reported), via an unspecified route of administration on 20May2021 (age at the time of vaccination 17-year-old) as 2nd dose, single for covid-19 immunisation. Medical history included allergic to sulfa drugs. Historical vaccine includes first dose of bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, Solution for injection, lot number and expiration date were not reported), via an unspecified route of administration on an unspecified date as 1st dose, single for covid-19 immunisation. The patient concomitant medications were not reported. It was reported that after receiving the shot patient experienced after receiving the shot she experienced the "covids bullseye", a circle on her arm at the site of administration, tired, her arm was a little sore. On Saturday, the patient got a rash of the diameter of a lemon on her inner thigh, so the reporter told her to only use sunblock, next day (Sunday) both legs were covered in a rash. Reporter looked on the Pfizer's website and saw that rash was reported in 0.001 percent of people who had the vaccine. Also, on Sunday, reporter took the patient to the doctor but he was not there, so she called a service (reporter did not elaborate on this) and a person told them that the rash could be from a serious disease called "petechiae rash" and told them to take patient to ER where she got the shot. Once in the ER, they told them that it was not the serious condition "petechiae rash" but that it was a "rash" and that they had never heard before of anybody experiencing a "rash" after the administration of the vaccine. Reporter wanted to know if "rash" has been reported as an adverse event of the Pfizer's COVID-19 vaccine, how long after the administration of the vaccine appears and how long it lasts. She would also like to know if we can call the facility to let them know that "rash" was reported as a side effect of the vaccine, since she was upset because she does not understand how someone in the ER does not know that "rash" was an adverse reaction and they had them thinking for a couple of hours that patient could be suffering of a serious disease. Reporter does not want someone else to go through this situation. Reporter mentioned that in the ER told them to wait 2 days and give Benadryl to patient, so she wanted to confirm if this was the right treatment for patient and if she should wait those 2 days to see if the rash was gone before she calls the doctor. Reporter wanted to know how long after the administration of the vaccine the rash appears and how long the rash would last. The outcome of the event was unknown   No follow-up attempts are possible. No further information is expected.
