Abstract

Generalized pustular psoriasis is a possibly serious condition that can be triggered by various factors. Previous studies show a slight likelihood of disease exacerbation subsequent to COVID-19 vaccination. Here, we present the first (to the best of our knowledge) case of pustular psoriasis flare after each one of the two shots of the BBIBP-CorV (Sinopharm) vaccine despite adalimumab treatment. © 2023 S.
