Lincoln Journal Star COVID arm is a term experts are using to describe a delayed itchy rash or dull pain following a COVID-19 vaccine. The condition is currently most strongly linked to the Moderna mRNA vaccines but can occur after others. Doctors say that the effect is harmless and people should not let it deter them from getting their second dose of the vaccine.

Researchers say that less than 1% of those involved in early trials of the Moderna vaccine developed a raised or itchy rash.
