Those who got it wrong, for whatever reason, may feel defensive and retrench into a position that doesn’t accord with the facts.

We saw a similar declaration 4 summers ago in Peru, which was eventually linked to a Campylobacter outbreak.
While many people mistakenly believe that vaccines are the primary cause of GBS, it is actually a rare event. GBS is most often associated with bacterial or viral infections. The CDC describes the disorder: What is Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS)? Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) is a rare disorder in which a person’s own immune system damages their nerve cells, causing muscle weakness and sometimes paralysis. GBS can cause symptoms that usually last for a few weeks. Most people recover fully from GBS, but some people have long-term nerve damage. In very rare cases, people have died of GBS, usually from difficulty breathing. In the United States, an estimated 3,000 to 6,000 people develop GBS each year. and [url]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guillain%E2%80%93Barr%C3%A9_syndrome[/url] or https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guillain%E2%80%93Barr%C3%A9_syndrome Maybe [url]https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5883192/[/url] or https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5883192/ ....DJ-Could there be a link between GBS and ME/CFS, Long CoViD ????? |
