Skin Conditions

 The following appeared in the news recently:

"Aug 11 (Reuters) - Three new conditions reported by a small number of people after vaccination with COVID-19 shots from Pfizer (PFE.N) and Moderna (MRNA.O) are being studied to assess if they may be possible side-effects, Europe's drugs regulator said on Wednesday.
Erythema multiforme, a form of allergic skin reaction; glomerulonephritis or kidney inflammation; and nephrotic syndrome, a renal disorder characterized by heavy urinary protein losses, are being studied by the safety committee of the European Medicines Agency (EMA), according to the regulator."
This news item interested me because I read it just after getting off the phone with someone who was having apparent kidney problems after being vaccinated. Very few people would make a connection between the two in spite of the fact that spike protein is known to impact circulation which is very important to kidney function.
