If in the past you had a severe allergic reaction or an immediate allergic reaction, even if not severe, to any of the ingredients of an mRNA vaccine against COVID-19, you should not get the vaccine.

If you’ve had an immediate allergic reaction, even if the reaction hasn’t been severe, to any vaccine or injectable treatment to treat another disease, check with your doctor if you should get it.

It is recommended that people get vaccinated even if they have a history of severe allergic reactions that are not related to vaccines or injections, such as allergies to food, pets, poisons, environmental allergies or latex.

People with a history of oral drug allergies or a family history of severe allergic reactions may also be vaccinated.

The Ministerio de Salud Pública (Ministry of Public Health) has not yet decided when people who have had COVID-19 will be vaccinated. Constantly check official channels such as https://www.planvacunarse.ec/ to keep up to date.

People have the right to decide whether or not they want to get vaccinated. However, we recommend that everyone, according to the established priority criteria, be vaccinated when he/she gets his/her appointment, to protect themselves and others.
