My first response (below) was a reference to an article about the COVID virus itself causing T1D, which it can do by *entering* beta cells through ACE2 receptors. (It "can", but it's still very rare.)
The vaccine is not a live virus, so it can't enter those cells. In fact, it only causes the immune system to create antibodies specifically designed to target the COVID virus directly, which doesn't look anything like beta cells or ACE2 receptors. So, no, the vaccine can't cause T1D.
"There have been postulations regarding the potential new-onset T1DM triggered by COVID-19. This article reviews the available evidence regarding the impact and interlink between COVID-19 and Τ1DM. We also explore the mechanisms behind the viral etiology of Τ1DM."
Do you have any information on people developing T1D after covid vaccination?
