Abstract

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) induced coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has produced an unparalleled setback for the world's economy and health. One of the best therapies to significantly lower severe illness and mortality from SARS-CoV-2 infection is vaccination. Worldwide vaccination campaigns are being implemented. New-onset autoimmune problems, such as immune thrombotic thrombocytopenia, autoimmune liver disorders, IgA nephropathy, Guillain-Barré syndrome, systemic lupus erythematosus, and rheumatoid arthritis, have recently been described more frequently after receiving COVID-19 vaccine. The creation of specific autoantibodies, molecular mimicry, and the function of specific vaccine adjuvants all emerge to play a significant role in autoimmunity. The post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2, usually known as Long Covid Syndrome, are beginning to be better understood in terms of the disparities in immune responses seen in individuals with and without the condition. We anticipate that the knowledge gleaned from several COVID-19 investigations will be put to use in research on the inflammatory mechanisms implicated in serious and protracted illnesses, which is still a key unmet need.

Keywords: COVID-19, SARS-CoV-2 infection, vaccination, autoimmune phenomenon, immunological inception, Long COVID Syndrome.
