Ex-Mrs Beard was very concerned about Guillain-Barré syndrome.

The sad thing is that the Flu can give it to you. The latest flu vaccines have a LOWER occurrence of G-B than the flu!

I have been receiving the flu vaccine 100% for the past ~20 years and sporadically before that.

I received my flu shot a week and a half ago and didn't notice any side effects. I did have a bit of a fever for a day but that was it.

I had the Flu Vaccine this year, 3 weeks after my second COVID shot. A week later I had a follow on the COVID vaccine and had to explain to the doctor that the 4" diameter subdermal hematoma was caused by the Flu Vaccine, 7 days ago. It was not anything to do with Covid Vaccine.

He HAD to document it, including pictures. And basically said that the person that gave it to me did a lousy job (or jab?).

If I opt for the Pfizer over Moderna, think they'll throw in a few blue pill samples? Or at least a coupon?

That picture is not of 3 of the 4 participants that gor Bell's palsy. 4 people did come down with Bell's Palsy though just not the 3 on the tweet/Facebook clsims.

You can see the same photo here. Was last updated on 11/20/2019.

Any and all vaccines have a tiny % that have a reaction. These vaccines will prove no different.

About half of those that have had an allergic reaction carry epipens.

People die or have terrible reactions to peanuts, latex, bee stings, eggs, shellfish, and many other common items.

The current rate is not so high that anyone should be concerned.

I am afraid that you will be disappointed when the vaccines prove to be a success and the worldwide economies reopen.

No, we are not. More misinformation on your part.

Bell's palsy affects about 40,000 people in the United States every year. It affects approximately 1 person in 65 during a lifetime. Worldwide statistics indicate a frequency of about .02% of the population.

Bell's palsy is more commonly seen in young adults, and persons of Japanese descent have a slightly higher incidence of the condition. Bell's palsy is the most common cause of facial paralysis worldwide and one of the most common neurological disorders involving a cranial nerve.

Incidence of Bell's palsy in males and females, as well as in various races, is approximately the same. The severity of the condition (e.g., mild, severe), and the rate of recovery also is equal.

If people are getting Bell's palsy from the vaccine, why does some whack Twitter account have to post a fake photo of 3 people intentionally contorting their faces? Does that photo fool the stupid?

The photo seems to be correct and of actual people with Bell's Palsy. It is just an old pre pandemic photo.

Keep in mind those are only the short term side effects, if you consider one month short.

Why is that ?

https://nypost.com/2021/01/01/alarming-number-of-us-health-care-workers-are-refusing-covid-19-vaccine

Earlier this week, Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine disclosed that about 60 percent of the nursing home workers in his state have so far chosen not to get vaccinated.

More than half of New York City’s EMS workers have shown skepticism, The Post reported last month.

And now California and Texas are experiencing a high rate of health care worker refusals, according to reports.

An estimated 50 percent of frontline workers in Riverside County in the Golden State opted against the drug, the Los Angeles Times reported, citing public health officials.
