Summary

Background: Allergic reactions have been reported to occur after vaccination with both the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine and Moderna COVID-19 Vaccine. Allergic reactions range from mild to severe and include life- threatening anaphylactic reactions, although no deaths have been reported with either vaccine. This study is designed with two principal aims: * To estimate the proportions of systemic allergic reactions to the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine and the Moderna COVID-19 Vaccine in a High-Allergy/Mast Cell Disorder (HA/MCD) population, and * If the risk in the HA/MCD is demonstrable, to determine whether the proportions are higher in the HA/MCD in comparison to a representative population without severe allergies or mast cell disorders

Eligible Conditions

Trial Design

4Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Placebo+Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 VaccineExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Participants will receive placebo as a first dose followed by two doses of their assigned active vaccine at subsequent visits. 0.3 mL of placebo will be administered intramuscularly in the deltoid. The placebo dose will be followed by two doses of Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine, with the first dose administered 1 month later. The Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine (0.3 mL) will be administered intramuscularly in the deltoid, as a series of two doses (0.3 mL each) administered 3 weeks (21 days) apart.
Group II: Placebo +Moderna COVID-19 VaccineExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Participants will receive placebo as a first dose followed by two doses of their assigned active vaccine at subsequent visits. 0.5 mL of placebo will be administered intramuscularly in the deltoid. The placebo dose will be followed by two doses of Moderna COVID-19 Vaccine, with the first dose administered 1 month later. The Moderna COVID-19 Vaccine (0.5 mL) will be administered intramuscularly in the deltoid, as a series of two doses (0.5 mL each) administered 1 month (28 days) apart.
Group III: Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 VaccineExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
The Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine (0.3 mL) will be administered intramuscularly in the deltoid, as a series of two doses (0.3 mL each) administered 3 weeks (21 days) apart.
Group IV: Moderna COVID-19 VaccineExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
The Moderna COVID-19 Vaccine (0.5 mL) will be administered intramuscularly in the deltoid, as a series of two doses (0.5 mL each) administered 1 month (28 days) apart.
