Spinal cord injury after covid vaccines

Reports have documented rare instances of spinal cord injuries, such as transverse myelitis (TM) and spinal cord infarction, following COVID-19 vaccination.

TM is an inflammatory condition causing sensory, motor, and autonomic dysfunctions below the affected spinal segment. Case studies have described TM onset within days to weeks post-vaccination. For example, a 70-year-old male developed TM seven days after receiving the mRNA-1273 vaccine, presenting with bilateral lower limb weakness and sensory impairment. Another case involved a 55-year-old man who developed multi-symptomatic TM after COVID-19 vaccination, leading to a comprehensive rehabilitation process.Taylor & Francis Online+2Lareb+2Lippincott Journals+2Taylor & Francis Online+3Lippincott Journals+3ijcasereportsandimages.com+3MDPI

Additionally, a global study involving 99 million individuals identified acute disseminated encephalomyelitis and transverse myelitis as extremely rare side effects linked to the AstraZeneca vaccine, with incidences of 0.78 and 1.82 cases per million doses, respectively.The Guardian

It's important to note that while these reports highlight potential associations, such adverse events are exceedingly rare. Health authorities emphasize that the benefits of COVID-19 vaccination in preventing severe disease and death outweigh the risks of rare complications. Individuals are encouraged to consult healthcare professionals regarding any concerns about vaccination.
