We read the publication on “Torsades de Pointes Following Vaccination for COVID-19.” Abrich and Olshansky reported the case and discussed the interrelationship. We agree that the COVID-19 vaccine has the potential to induce side effects, such as irregular heart rhythm. The current case may or may not indicate an adverse reaction to the COVID-19 vaccination. It’s impossible to draw any conclusions because there’s no information on prevaccination health or cardiac rhythm. There’s a potential that a background personal disease or a concurrent medical problem will cause cardiac rhythm problems. For example, a COVID-19 vaccination recipient may have a concomitant dengue infection, and in some dengue instances, torsades de pointes may occur. It is crucial to rule out other probable etiologies for any cardiac problem following COVID-19 vaccination.
