The Center for Disease Control’s website warns people with atopic dermatitis.regarding the vaccine, not people who have allergic contact dermatitis. It’s always best to let your doctor know about this, of course, before getting the vaccine.

Generally speaking , anyone with allergies of any type should be cautious of vaccines. This does not mean don’t get vaccinated just remind the Doctor so they will monitor you a bit longer before releasing you.
