KATIE Price had to take her son to hospital for checks after a bad reaction to the coronavirus vaccine.

Harvey Price, 18, had a soaring temperature after taking the jab, but is now back “on form” his mum said.

The teenager suffers from the genetic disorder Prader-Willi Syndrome as well as an underactive thyroid and diabetes.

This is a rare genetic condition with symptoms including an excessive appetite and weight gain, learning difficulties, behavioural problems and weak muscles.

He suffered an adverse reaction to Covid-19 Oxford vaccine where he was shaking uncontrollably, The Mirror reported.

During lockdown mum-of-five Katie revealed how proud she was of him when he raised £12,000 for the NHS.

She said: “Thank you for all your kind messages and best wishes for Harvey, he is home safe and well."

In the clip, she asked Harvey about his trip to hospital and the teenager said he had to go in because "I wasn't feeling right".

Katie said: “He just had a reaction, and his temperature was really, really high. Obviously with Harvey I have to keep an eye on him and I couldn’t get his temperature down.

“I phoned Great Ormond Street (Hospital) and they told me to go to the nearest A&E.”

She said Harvey had his blood tested and had an X-ray and heart checks.

Katie said: "So guys Harvey is obviously home and safe and on form today.”

She told fans she will be getting her coronavirus injection when she is able to do so.

Last week Katie Price praised fans for reaction to her documentary about taking on online bullies who make comments about Harvey.

She said: “I have been inundated with emails and stories from parents in a similar situation to myself and Harvey.

“It's been a comfort to hear I'm not alone and that many of you are experiencing the same - my team and I will continue to read through your emails and will respond in due course, so please do bare with us.”

Harvey enjoys art and drawing, and made T-shirts featuring a rainbow and the NHS logo to raise money for the health service last year.

He has also had one of his pictures unveiled at the Gatwick Airport railway station.
