Seasonal influenza is a viral infection that could cause severe disease; therefore, annual influenza vaccination is highly recommended, especially among patients with a weakened immune system. However, such vaccination is contraindicated for people with hypersensitivity to the vaccine or any of its components, e.g., eggs. This paper describes a case of an egg-allergic individual who received an influenza vaccine containing egg protein, which only caused mild tenderness at the site of injection. Two weeks later, the subject received a double vaccination of a second booster dose of Pfizer-BioNTech and the seasonal influenza vaccine. The patient reported no local or systemic adverse reactions to the vaccine. This case report suggests vaccination safety for subjects with mild allergies to vaccine components.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/vaccines11050950","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,5,5]],"date-time":"2023-05-05T09:18:09Z","timestamp":1683278289000},"page":"950","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Uneventful Coadministration of Seasonal Influenza and COVID-19 BNT162b2 Vaccines Two Weeks Post-Influenza Vaccination in an Egg-Allergic Subject: A Case Report"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"11","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2243-0971","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Anwar A.","family":"Sayed","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medical Microbiology and Immunology, College of Medicine, Taibah University, Madinah 42353, Saudi Arabia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,5,5]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"846","DOI":"10.1016\/j.vaccine.2006.09.041","article-title":"Influenza-and RSV-associated hospitalizations among adults","volume":"25","author":"Mullooly","year":"2007","journal-title":"Vaccine"},{"key":"ref_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"010402","DOI":"10.7189\/jogh.10.010402","article-title":"Burden of influenza-associated respiratory and circulatory mortality in India, 2010\u20132013","volume":"10","author":"Narayan","year":"2020","journal-title":"J.
