You can be allergic to components in any vaccine
Extremely rarely
I am sorry to hear that your aunt had an adverse vaccine reaction. Vaccines are generally safe however adverse reactions can happen with any type of vaccine. Most of those reactions are not allergic but they require evaluation by an allergist/immunologist to determine safe administrations of vaccines in the future. I would advise that she has a formal evaluation by an allergist. Monika Korff, MDFACAAIoffice-410-730-6000www.allergyasthmamaryland.com
