A healthy man was struck by a life-threatening inflammation of his brain and spinal cord after just one dose of a Covid vaccine.
The unnamed 60-year-old sought help from medics in Paris, France after suddenly developing walking problems and
mental confusion, four weeks after receiving a dose of AstraZeneca’s Covid jab.

While the condition can be caused by health problems like an infection or blood cancers, analysis of the man’s brain tissue showed no signs of any viruses or other disease that could be responsible

They then diagnosed him with postvaccinal encephalitis, dangerous brain swelling following a jab.
The man, who suffered two bouts of brain swelling while in the care of the medical team, was treated with special drugs to suppress his immune system for six months until his symptoms were under control.
Doctors, who reported the case JAMA Neurology, said the man had made an almost full recovery three years
