    AbstractPityriasis rosea (PR) is a self-limited disease with exanthematous papulosquamous rashes mostly associated with reactivation of human herpesvirus (HHV)-6 or HHV-7. PR-like eruptions, which occur along with peripheral eosinophilia, interface dermatitis, and eosinophils on histopathology, may result from medications or vaccinations. Previously, PR-like eruptions had been noted following vaccination for influenza or other vaccines. During this pandemic, acute COVID-19 infection has been related to PR or PR-like eruptions in several cases. Various COVID-19 vaccines associated with PR-like eruptions were rarely reported. Herein, we report a case of cutaneous PR-like eruptions following COVID-19 mRNA-1273 vaccination.Copyright © 2022 Formosan Medical Association. Published by Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
