Question

Asked for Female, 27 Years

Hi, I have vitiligo since the last several years and it sometimes flares up every three years. I wanted to know the effect of Covid vaccine on my vitiligo. If the vaccine improves immunity, will my vitiligo increase as a result of the flare up. I would really try to avoid that.
