Abstract Viral infections are considered as etiologic factors of subacute thyroiditis. The true incidence of subacute thyroiditis, caused by SARS‐CoV‐2 infection, is probably considerable since it is often masked by more dramatic affection of the respiratory system. This report presents two female patients who developed de Quervain's thyroiditis after COVID‐19 disease.
