I would strongly advise you see an allergist who can review the reaction your child had to the flu shot and determine what kind of reaction it was and will that impact her risk for the COVID vaccine. It does not necessarily mean COVID vaccine is contraindicated but you will need a detailed evaluation before any recommendations are made
