Hi all, a friend who has Hashimoto mentioned that Europe doesn’t recommend AZ vaccine to people with Hashi and those should get Pfizer one. Does anyone come across anything similar regarding Graves’ disease?

The official documentation is available here and appears to say nothing about Hashimoto's or Graves disease - at least, nothing I could find quickly:

UK (MHRA)

gov.uk/government/publicati...

EU (EMA)

ema.europa.eu/en/medicines/...

We have two polls running on the effects of the vaccines. See here:

healthunlocked.com/thyroidu...

Many with Hashimoto's or Graves have been vaccinated and reported their experiences.

As we are trying to keep this discussion together, and not spread across lots of separate posts, I shall close your post to replies. This is not in any way a criticism that you have asked.
