I’m allergic to penicillin and had the Pfizer jab with no ill effects.

It's first in the most frequently asked questions on Google...

I am allergic to penicillin. Can I have a COVID-19 vaccination?
Yes, allergy to penicillins is not a contraindication to the Pfizer/BioNTech or AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine or Moderna vaccine
