This review examines the immunological and autoimmune adverse events associated with COVID-19 vaccines, highlighting their frequencies, reported cases, and associations with specific vaccine classes. The concept of vaccine-induced immune thrombotic thrombocytopenia is crucial in addressing vaccine skepticism. Understanding this concept helps healthcare professionals identify and manage potential adverse events after vaccination. Despite their rarity, immunological and autoimmune adverse events cause concern and anxiety among the public. To maintain public trust in vaccination programs, healthcare professionals and public health agencies must actively monitor and address these adverse events, promptly disclose suspicious incidents, take measures to mitigate dangers, and inform the public with transparency and accurate information. Continuing research and surveillance are essential for understanding the underlying mechanisms of these adverse events and developing strategies to minimize their occurrence.
