“…10,11 PMR may follow vaccination, more frequently influenza vaccines. 12 Some investigators hypothesized that this link could be an expression of an autoimmune/auto-inflammatory syndrome induced by vaccine components called "adjuvants" (ASIA syndrome), 13 and other researchers discussed that PMR triggered by vaccination could constitute a subset of milder diseases. 14 When we searched the published literature, we found only one case of PMR-like syndrome following anti SARS-CoV-2 vaccination.…”

“…4 Cases of GCA or polymyalgia rheumatica after influenza vaccination were also reported. 5 Here we report a case of GCA development after receipt of a SARS-CoV-2 vaccine. Written informed consent was provided by the patient.A 70-year-old man was admitted for headache and hyperesthesia of the scalp.…”

“…Currently there are only case reports of vasculitis or other autoimmune diseases that occur after influenza vaccination on millions of doses administered [ 73 , 74 , 75 , 76 , 77 ]. In particular, 65 patients who developed vasculitis after influenza vaccination were identified from 45 published reports [ 78 ].…”

Vaccines represent one of the most effective measures of public health medicine, saving countless lives and preventing lifelong disabilities. Vaccines are extremely safe, however, no vaccine is completely free from risks and adverse events can occur following vaccination. An adverse event following immunization (AEFI) may be a true adverse reaction caused by the vaccine or an event that temporally occurred after immunization but is not caused by it. Among the adverse reactions to vaccines, one of the most feared is the triggering of autoimmune diseases, which are a heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by dysregulation of the immune system. Currently, no mechanisms have been demonstrated that could explain the correlation between vaccination and the development of autoimmune diseases. Furthermore, epidemiological studies do not support the hypothesis that vaccines cause systemic autoimmune diseases. The only confirmed associations, although very rare, are those between the flu vaccine and Guillain-Barré syndrome, especially with old vaccine preparations, and measles-mumps-rubella (MMR) vaccine and thrombocytopenia. Due to the SARS-CoV2 pandemic, new types of vaccines have been developed and are now available. Close vaccine safety-surveillance is currently underway for these new vaccines.
