Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic has forced the development of vaccines to fight SARS-CoV-2. After vaccination began, reports of adverse reactions, including anaphylaxis, emerged. This raised concerns about the safety of COVID-19 vaccines in patients diagnosed with mastocytosis. The authors share their experience in administering different COVID-19 vaccines to patients diagnosed with mastocytosis.

Resumo
A pandemia por COVID-19 obrigou ao rápido desenvolvimento de vacinas para combate ao SARS-CoV-2. Após o início da vacinação começaram a surgir relatos de reações adversas às vacinas, incluindo reações anafiláticas, surgindo dúvidas sobre a segurança das vacinas em doentes com mastocitose. Os autores apresentam a sua experiência em relação à administração de diferentes vacinas contra a COVID-19 em doentes com diagnóstico de mastocitose.
