vaccination

Given the rapid spread of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection and the recent implementation of SARS-CoV-2 vaccination, we have much to learn about the duration of immune protection and the interface between the immune responses to infection and to vaccination...

In Belgium, the government plans to start vaccinating people younger than 65. Priority is given to a large group of people with health conditions like diabetes, heart disease, chronic kidney disease etc. This group consists of approximately 1,2-1,5 million people or 10% of the population in...

Some posts on this thread have been moved from the vaccination experiences thread and the long covid thread. Note also there is a separate thread here for discussing the science of the vaccines. We've also retitled the thread to broaden its scope from just Covid vaccinations...

This thread has been split from the Covid-19 Vaccines and Vaccination thread. I had my Covid-19 jab yesterday (Oxford/AstraZeneca), and thought people might be interested in my reaction to it. However, this should be taken in context: 1. I don't have ME. 2. The day before, I was under a...

I’m not really posting for discussion but more for information as I don’t think people know about it. We certainly didn’t. My daughter just found out that unpaid carers are now in Group 6 for the Covid 19 vaccination. Only your GP won’t know you’re a carer unless you notify them. My daughter...

I've no idea whether HPV vaccine increases the risk for POTS. From what research I have seen it doesn't seem to increase the risk of ME/CFS. Saying that, this paper looks like it could be annoying. https://obgyn.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1111/jog.14227

I'm not a medical doctor so I don't know whether suggestions like this are common for other illnesses. It seems plausible to me on a superficial level that possibly people with ME/CFS should avoid vaccinations during relapses. Like many things, it would be great to have more research done on...

" 06 July 2018 Two leading paediatricians in India have urged the World Health Organization (WHO) to urgently revise its manual on classification of Adverse Events Following Immunization (AEFI), warning that the new guidelines put children’s life at risk. This needs to be done “urgently in the...

Mods, this article straddles a couple of categories so please go ahead and transfer it if it's not the right place. It's a long read describing the onset of m.e. following hard upon a vaccination with Gardisil. Its focus is primarily on the problematic collection of data during the clinical...
