Viral video shows woman struggling to walk after her Covid jab in extremely rare case
EXPERTS have sought to reassure people that are hesitant to get the Covid vaccine in fear of a mystery illness.
“In my view, nobody should feel forced into having a vaccine if they don't want it. However, there is no way to avoid FND which often“We often see it after minor physical injury or triggered by a physical illness that in most people would only produce symptoms for days or weeks.. She was previously entirely normal with no psychological history and working full time.”
“So it's not the vaccine that causes an immune response, it's how the brain responds to a physical event.Dr Coebergh added: “My message would be that because it's not caused by vaccine ingredients, people should have it. Any accident, injury, operation, can trigger FND in a vulnerable person... When you start paying attention to that body part when you believe something is wrong, FND can happen.Another team of experts, led by Dr David Perez, Departments of Neurology and Psychiatry, Massachusetts General Hospital, wrote inBut they said it’s not “directly caused by the substances in the vaccine” but factors such as “heightened bodily attention” that lead to FND.
Dr Raine said although “no effective medicine or vaccine is without risk”, the jabs are “safe and effective” and 82 million doses have been given in the UK.Dozens of posts on social media have warned against the vaccines, based on the assumption they cause neurological symptoms. He said: “When you look at these videos, they are what we see in FND, but FND should be diagnosed on positive grounds by an experienced doctor; like change with attention and difference between voluntary and automatic movement.”
