Abstract
Although there is a great demand for increased coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccination worldwide, rare side effects of the vaccine in susceptible individuals are attracting attention. We recently treated a patient with type 1 diabetes who had HLA-A*240201/A*020101, B*5401/B*5601, DRB1*0405/DRB1*0405, DPB1*0501/DPB1*0501 and DQB1*0401/DQB1*040 and developed Graves' disease soon after the administration of a severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) vaccine. While causal relationships between vaccinations and adverse events are difficult to discern due to both confounding and masking factors, our findings suggest that attention to possible adjuvant-related endocrinological diseases in certain individuals receiving SARS-CoV-2 vaccines is appropriate.
