which was the health company that analysed the vax for its own employees and found a dose dependent response to the vax

The short version: the study you're thinking of is a Japanese corporate-employee genome study, not a health company's own internal analysis, and it did not report a dose-dependent harm signal.

The closest match in this retrieval is a genome-wide association study of 2,554 Japanese corporate employees that looked at side effects after COVID-19 booster shots and found six genetic loci tied to symptom severity, including lymph-node swelling and injection-site induration [1]. That is a genetic-susceptibility study, not a dose-response finding, and the company is not named in the record.

A separate Finnish survey of people reporting post-injection harms describes a suggested dose-response pattern, with 40 of 48 worsening after the next dose and 37 of 48 adding new symptoms [3]. That is a self-selected online survey of 63 completers, not a company analyzing its own workforce.

Japanese GWAS [1]2,554 corporate employeesSix gene loci tied to side-effect severity
Finnish survey [3]63 self-selected respondents83% worsened after next dose
MOSAICO [2]Healthcare workersPrior side effects predicted repeat side effects

The specific "health company analyzed its own employees' vax and found dose-dependent response" study is not in this retrieval. I cannot confirm which company it was or what it found. If you can name the company or the year, I can tell you whether the design would support a dose-response claim.

My call: the study you are describing is not identifiable from what I have, and the nearest matches are a genetic study and a voluntary survey, neither of which is a company's internal dose-response analysis. Confidence: low.

Keep digging
