In my Tinnitus Forum a few people reported that they developed a Tinnitus shortly after having received a jab against the Corona-virus and suspect that there is a causal relationship. However, according to the British Tinnitus Association only about 6000 official reports of Tinnitus as a side effect of the 100 million vaccinations performed last year in the UK. This is less than 1 in 10,000 and could as well be an accidental coincidence. With so many people having been vaccinated, and with about 1 million tinnitus consultations taking place anyway each year in the UK, it is highly likely that some of them just develop a Tinnitus (for whatever reason) just accidentally shortly after having been vaccinated, without there being a causal relationship between the two events. Like with other suspected Tinnitus causes as well, just a temporal coincidence does not necessarily indicate a causal relationship, and one should not get fixated on such an idea. There can be many reasons why a Tinnitus develops, which often are difficult to pinpoint. And in many cases such retrospective searches for causes are not really helpful anyway. One should rather concentrate on trying to find measures that at least reduce the level of Tinnitus to a bearable level.
