[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9] The question arises whether the current evidence is sufficient to confirm with postvaccination emergence of 31 cases of autoimmune conditions, including systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), thyroiditis, Graves' disease, IgA vasculitis, inflammatory arthritis, dermatomyositis, ulcerative colitis, autoimmune hepatitis, autoimmune hemolytic anemia, autoimmune pancreatitis, ANCA vasculitis, myasthenia gravis, and Sjögren's syndrome (SS). 2 Similarly, the vectored vaccine Sputnik has also been linked to the emergence of 28 cases of autoimmune conditions in Mexico and Argentina.…”
