Original Note:
This image is missing important context. The paused mRNA vaccine trial is for an HIV vaccine in which less than 200 participants have received. Of these, 7% reported a reaction. The “puzzling skin” was mild or moderate hives/itchiness and managed with allergy medication. https://www.iavi.org/features/iavi-statement-on-mrna-hiv-vaccine-candidate-trials/ https://www.science.org/content/article/puzzling-skin-side-effects-stymie-advance-promising-hiv-vaccine
