I don’t understand why we have these complications in the first place I had a fair few vaccines back as a kid and I swear you never heard about these things happening.

I’ve had 6 jabs now, one strong cold after the first jab and that’s been it. That’s the case for every other person I know who has had multiple jabs.
A lot of fucking nut jobs in these comments. Don’t usually see that on this sub
Vaccine conspiracy theories are still alive and well I see.
For anyone choosing to spread them; please spare the rest of us the burden of your bloodlines continuation by opting out of procreation.
I’ve had most vaccines…the usual childhood ones…I took vaccines when I went to the Gambia…but I never took the covid one..I was initially concerned by how fast it was developed…and there was no data available about any potential side effects…then 2 of my late nans carers who took the jab or they would lose there jobs..they developed blood clots…they were both hospitalised..one of them had to be taken in again.
My friend..whom I’ve known for 20 years…her brother took it and was dead within a week..blood clot.
So I never took it. Now I’m labelled anti vax…I’ve been asked if I believe the world is flat is well…or if I’m Qanon. I’m 50 years old and had pretty much every vaccine except the covid one..but no I’m an anti vaxxer apparently!
I feel sorry for the bloke and his family, but Sky’s regurgitating the same old fucking bollocks is just a step too far: “… eager to get his COVID jab to protect elderly relatives” and “Vaccination has long been seen as a social contract, with individuals taking the jab for the good of everyone.” They’re trying to portray him as some kind of Covid do-gooder come martyr. Just fucking stop.
Either you accept they are safe and effective, or you’re a conspiracy theorist nut job. Right?
CIDP is treated with intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) – buts it’s very expensive. Corticosteroids and plasma exchange are cheaper options. Sometimes the progression of it can lead you to A&E, then after an in-patient after diagnosis. I wonder if the fellow was not diagnosed at first visit to A&E. There’s a related guillane barre syndrome (GBS) which is quicker onset and more serious if not caught. IVIG again for that. GBS was more correlated with AZ, with sufferers taking different amounts of time to recover.
“Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy”
Golly.
How rare is that as an adverse event, 1 in 5,000,000 adults?
