COVID-19 Vaccinations and Thyroid Disease


As each thyroid patient’s diagnosed thyroid disorder is individual, the Australian Thyroid Foundation (ATF) encourage patients to consult their thyroid treating doctor to discuss their thyroid condition and the COVID-19 vaccine and decide together the best outcome.

Please also follow the information available on the following Department of Health link regarding COVID-19 Vaccines.
