The patient received the Moderna booster dose on 06-Jan-2022. Within 16 hours from taking the Moderna shot, the patient's entire body was covered in hives and throat felt tight but did not have any trouble breathing.  The urgent care assessed it likely as a latex allergic reaction from the band aid that the pharmacy used after they administered the shot. The patient was prescribed prednisone but was asked not to use it until Sunday till 09-Jan-2022, as it would affect the effectiveness of the shot. Urgent care asked the patient to use Benadryl for the hives.  The hives subsided during the day (itchy skin remained) but then started to return around 9 P.M. On 08-Jan-2022, the patient woke up to worse hives, including swollen eyes, lips, and wrists. The patient called the allergist who said that it was not a latex allergy but an immune reaction to the booster dose. The allergist asked the patient to take the Prednisone immediately and take Allegra 180 mg/twice daily.  The hives had subsdided somewhat, but were still present for the patient every morning when the patient woke up. The allergist said that it could take a few weeks for the hives to disappear.
