According to the Ministry of Health, more than 29 crores 46 lakh vaccines have been administered so far. The vaccine that is being used the most in India is the vaccine of Oxford and AstraZeneca. In India, this vaccine has been named Covishield. Till now its dose has been given to crores of people. Although it has been reported long ago that some people may experience minor side-effects such as fever, fatigue, headache, and muscle aches after taking the vaccine, but two different studies have found shocking claims that have been made.
It is being said that some people taking the Oxford and AstraZeneca vaccines have also been seen to have problems with a rare neurological disorder called Guillain-Barre syndrome. This is a disease related to the nervous system. If this disease spreads throughout the body, then the person can also become paralyzed.
Guillain-Barre Syndrome: According to the study, Guillain-Barre syndrome is a rare but serious autoimmune disorder in which the immune system attacks healthy cells in the nervous system. In this disease, mainly the nerves of the face become weak.
Gullian- Berry Syndrome
According to the study, seven cases of this disease have been reported in India after taking the vaccine. These seven people had received the first dose of the Covishield vaccine and between 10 and 22 days after that, symptoms of Guillain-Barre syndrome were seen in them.
According to the study published in the journal Annals of Neurology, for people who got Guillain-Barre syndrome disease after taking the vaccine, both sides of their face were weak and drooping, compared to less than 20 percent of its cases. Researchers are also surprised that in such a short time this disease spread at a much faster rate than expected.
Vaccination
Researchers said that the corona vaccine is very safe, but at the same time they have also advised being vigilant in cases of weakness of facial muscles from Guillain-Barre syndrome after taking the vaccine and keep an eye on such cases. . However, no vaccine in the world has been 100% effective against corona. Not only this, as far as the side effects of the vaccine are concerned, its cases have been seen in very few people. Millions of people have got this vaccine in India, but serious side effects have been seen in very few people.
