Sudden sensorineural hearing loss is an acute onset impairment of hearing that may lead to permanent hearing loss and tinnitus. The exact pathophysiological mechanisms are unknown, and many cases are idiopathic, although viral infection is 1 possible causative factor. As a result, vaccination against viral infections may play a role in reducing the occurrence of sudden sensorineural hearing loss. However, little is known about sudden sensorineural hearing loss as a potential adverse event after immunization; existing reports of sudden sensorineural hearing loss occurring after vaccination are rare, and an association has not been established. In this issue of JAMA Otolaryngology–Head & Neck Surgery, 2 articles investigate occurrences of sudden sensorineural hearing loss after COVID-19 vaccination.
