COVID-19 vaccines and stroke risk: New study finds alarming findings
(ORDO NEWS) — As the world continues to fight the COVID-19 pandemic, vaccines have become the most important tool in the fight against this virus. However, some experts have raised concerns about the safety of vaccines, reporting adverse reactions and deaths after vaccination.
Now, those fears have been added to by a new study from the US state of Georgia, which has shown a significant increase in the risk of stroke in those who contracted the COVID-19 virus after receiving the first dose of the vaccine.
Study, published in the journal Frontiers in Neurology, found that people who contracted the COVID-19 virus within three weeks of receiving the first dose of the vaccine were eight times more likely to have a stroke than those who were vaccinated but did not contract the virus.
The study was led by Nahab and colleagues at Emory, who analyzed a statewide database containing information on COVID-19 vaccine recipients.
About five million adults in Georgia received at least one COVID-19 vaccine between December 2020 and March 2022, with 54% of them vaccinated with Pfizer, 41% with Moderna, and 5% with J&J. The study found that individuals co-infected with COVID-19 had an eight-fold increased risk of ischemic stroke and a five-fold increased risk of hemorrhagic stroke within 21 days of vaccination.
The findings have raised speculation that vaccine-virus interactions may be responsible for the increased risk of stroke. Some experts speculate that the cause may be an autoimmune attack triggered by the vaccine, which triggers sustained production of the spike protein in numerous organs of the body, including the heart, circulatory system and brain.
Cardiologist Dr. Peter McCullough wrote about the study on his Substack page “Bold Reasoning”. According to him, the findings indicate the need for “detoxification of spike proteins”, for which he and his colleagues developed a treatment protocol, the manuscript of which is currently in press.
The results of the study are alarming and highlight the dangers of rapidly developing and introducing vaccines without sufficient data security and monitoring. Stroke is a devastating outcome, and it appears that a large number of debilitating cases could have been avoided if COVID-19 vaccines had been discontinued in January 2021 due to excess mortality. The patients in this study would have been spared stroke and disability.
It is important to note that this study did not compare with unvaccinated people. However, the findings add to a growing body of evidence about the potential risks associated with COVID-19 vaccines. Therefore, it is very important that people make informed decisions about vaccination and discuss any concerns with their healthcare provider.
