Delayed injection site reaction after mRNA-1273 vaccination in Japan: A retrospective, cross-sectional study

Abstract

The incidence of delayed injection site reaction after the first dose of mRNA-1273 vaccine was 12.5% among females and 1.5% among males in a cohort of primarily elderly Japanese. After the second dose, 48.4% of those who could be contacted reported recurrence. The reaction may be relatively common among Asian females.
