Abstract

Vaccination against the SARS-CoV-2 virus is a milestone in combating the current pandemic. Nevertheless, there is increasing evidence that COVID-19 vaccination also may trigger immune- or autoimmune-mediated skin diseases. We here report the association of COVID-19 vaccination with sarcoidal immune reaction.
