Megyn Kelly has been dealing with a serious health issue behind the scenes.
Now she’s finally speaking out about what happened to her.
And Megyn Kelly turned furious after suffering this just disclosed secret health scare.
Megyn Kelly reveals ongoing autoimmune condition
Media personality and podcast host Megyn Kelly is opening up about a personal health battle that she believes was triggered by COVID precautions she took during the pandemic.
The 54-year-old broadcaster recently disclosed that annual physical tests continue to show signs of an autoimmune condition that she says developed following COVID precautions she took.
“I just had my annual physical, and it’s still testing positive for autoimmune,” Kelly revealed in an interview with the Daily Mail.
Kelly didn’t hold back about her feelings on the matter.
“I really, really regret . . . ,” she stated firmly.
The former Fox News star received two doses in 2020 and later got a third booster dose on her doctor’s recommendation.
Kelly was living in New York City during the height of pandemic restrictions, when unvaccinated residents faced severe limitations on where they could go and what they could do.
“You could get the fake cards, but it was hard. I didn’t know how to do it,” Kelly admitted.
“So, I trusted my doctors and I did it.”
Kelly says her doctor confirmed role in her condition
This isn’t the first time Kelly has spoken about her concerns.
In February, she mentioned the suspected link to her health issues during an episode of her show.
According to Kelly, her rheumatologist suggested that the timing, followed by a COVID infection—likely the Omicron variant—may have contributed to her ongoing autoimmune condition.
“I said [to the rheumatologist], ‘Could it be that I had the third,’” Kelly recalled saying of her doctor visit.
“‘[A]nd then within a month of it, got the Omicron version.'” Kelly recounted.
“And she said, ‘Yes.'”
Kelly, who now runs her own podcast network MK Media, described her autoimmune symptoms in blunt terms as “f**king annoying” while acknowledging that others have experienced even worse outcomes.
She expressed deep frustration about how the risks were presented to the public during the early pandemic.
“But we were lied to,” Kelly stated plainly.
“It was not an informed assumption of the risk.”
Health officials admit to rare but serious side effects
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has acknowledged rare but serious adverse reactions.

Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg made headlines in January when he told podcaster Joe Rogan that his company faced pressure from the Biden-Harris administration to remove social media content that referenced injuries—even if the information was factually accurate.
“They’re like, ‘No, you have to take that down,'” Zuckerberg told Rogan during their conversation.

Research now underway
Meanwhile, researchers at Yale University are currently studying issues they characterize as a syndrome, with persistent symptoms like exercise intolerance, brain fog, insomnia, and dizziness.
Scientists are investigating whether these symptoms could lead to longer-term autoimmune complications or tissue damage in some patients.
Kelly didn’t hold back her feelings about how the entire rollout was handled.
“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 candid remarks contribute to the growing conversation about the long-term effects of pandemic-era health policies and the lack of transparency surrounding mandated health measures.
As more time passes, an increasing number of people are questioning whether they received complete information about potential risks.
Kelly’s willingness to speak openly about her experience may encourage others facing similar health challenges to come forward with their stories.
