Media personality and podcast host Megyn Kelly has publicly disclosed that she continues to suffer from an autoimmune condition she believes may be linked to her COVID-19 vaccinations.

The 54-year-old broadcaster revealed new details about her health in a recent interview, stating that tests continue to indicate an autoimmune response, which she first noticed following her COVID booster shot.

“I just had my annual physical, and it’s still testing positive for autoimmune,” Kelly said in an interview with the Daily Mail.

“I really, really regret having gotten the vaccine.”

Kelly received two doses of the Pfizer vaccine in 2020 and a third booster dose later, as recommended by her physician at the time.

She was living in New York City during the peak of the pandemic, a period when unvaccinated residents were subject to strict lockdown policies and restrictions from public venues.

“You could get the fake cards, but it was hard. I didn’t know how to do it,” Kelly said.

“So, I trusted my doctors and I did it.”

The revelation builds on comments she made in February during an episode of her show, where she first mentioned a suspected link between her health issues and the COVID-19 vaccine.

According to Kelly, her rheumatologist suggested that the timing of her booster shot and a subsequent COVID infection—possibly the Omicron variant—could have contributed to her ongoing condition.

“I said [to the rheumatologist], ‘Could it be that I had the third shot – and then within a month of it, got the Omicron version,’” Kelly recalled. “And she said, ‘Yes.’”

Kelly, who now runs her own podcast network MK Media, described the autoimmune symptoms as “f**king annoying” but emphasized that others have had worse outcomes.

She expressed frustration over how the risks of vaccination were communicated by public health officials during the early stages of the pandemic.

“But we were lied to,” Kelly said.

“It was not an informed assumption of the risk.”

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) acknowledges that COVID-19 vaccines have been associated with rare but serious side effects.

These include myocarditis (inflammation of the heart muscle), pericarditis (inflammation of the heart lining), and Guillain-Barré Syndrome, a neurological disorder that can result in temporary paralysis.

While the CDC maintains that such adverse events are uncommon, the agency has continued to monitor post-vaccination effects through its VAERS reporting system.

Growing scrutiny has emerged from both medical professionals and vaccine recipients who say concerns about side effects were dismissed or censored.

In a January interview with podcaster Joe Rogan, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg claimed his company faced pressure from the Biden-Harris administration to remove social media content that referenced vaccine-related injuries—even if it was satire or factually accurate.

“They’re like, ‘No, you have to take that down,’” Zuckerberg told Rogan.

“We said, ‘No, we’re not gonna take down humor and satire. We’re not gonna take down things that are, that are true.’”

Meanwhile, research at Yale University is underway to study “post-vaccination syndrome” or PVS, a term used to describe lingering symptoms like exercise intolerance, brain fog, insomnia, and dizziness.

Scientists are examining whether these symptoms could lead to longer-term autoimmune complications or tissue damage.

“There’s no question people have been hurt and even killed,” Kelly said. “I, for one, have learned a ton, but remain pissed off about how the whole thing was handled.”

Kelly’s remarks add to a broader public conversation about the long-term effects of pandemic-era decisions, as well as the level of transparency surrounding vaccine safety and risk.
