ABSTRACT

Introduction: As of June 2021, a total of 120.2 million cases of corona virus disease 2019 (COVID19), with Seven and half lakh COVID 19 related deaths occurred, as estimated by CDC Globally. Vaccination was started by the Government of India to prevent new cases. With the ongoing pandemic, several COVID-19 vaccine agents have received emergency use approval, several adverse effects are being reported with increasing administration of COVID-19 vaccines. Finding(s): Here we describe a case of Henoch Schoenlein purpura, a small vessel vasculitis which is usually seen in children with excellent prognosis in adults, on contrary HSP developed in adult male following COVID-19 vaccination had a rapid deteriorating course. Millions of people are being vaccinated around the world, and thus it is conceivable that people may develop other diseases temporally associated with vaccination but which are unrelated to the vaccine itself. Conclusion(s): Auto Immune Diseases (AID) can be triggered by vaccine but how do they behave when compared to primary AID both in terms of presentation, prognosis and treatment response are not known, thereby we concluded that Henoch Schoenlein purpura can develop post covid vaccination in adults and may have a rapid course and poor prognosis.
