Abstract

Auto-immune reactions, including auto-immune bullous disease, have been reported following SARS-CoV-2 virus vaccination. Few cases of bullous pemphigoid are described, but there has been no case of pemphigoid gestationis. We report the first case here.

Keywords: SARS-CoV-2; bullous auto-immune disease; mRNA vaccine; pemphigoid gestationis.
