Can I take the vaccine if I have allergies?

The only people who should not take the vaccine are those who have already taken the vaccine and had a severe allergic reaction to it.

The vaccine is safe for people with all kinds of food allergies, as well as drug allergies, including allergies to antibiotics such as penicillin.

​

Immunocompromised patients and those undergoing chemotherapy should take the vaccines without safety concerns. However, as they are immunosuppressed, they might not make as good an immune response as others.
