Symptom narrative

Following receipt of a COVID-19 vaccination, I was later diagnosed with Hashimoto?s thyroiditis and papillary thyroid carcinoma. My diagnosis was confirmed by biopsy and surgical pathology. I am submitting this report because recent peer-reviewed research (withheld) identified a statistical association between COVID-19 vaccination and increased rates of thyroid-cancer diagnoses (hazard ratio 1.35, 95 % CI 1.21?1.51). I understand that this study does not prove causation but wish to report my experience for continued safety monitoring and investigation.
