Acantholytic dyskeratosis mimicking Grover disease as a cutaneous manifestation of a side effect to the Moderna (mRNA-1273) COVID vaccine is rare with only one documented case in the literature to date. Herein, we present a case of an eruptive, erythematous, vesiculopapular rash developing in a patient after the Moderna vaccine.
