A member asked:
Can dealing or coping with covid be more detrimental for someone who has autoimmune hyperthyroidism but has been taking medication. thyroid levels are within normal range because of meds?

I have seen no reports of autoimmune HYPERthyroidism (which is very rare) is related to any differences in risk of COVID or severity of COVID. I would go to the FL or US CDC and search more about this to be most uptodate.
