I spoke yesterday evening with my father and during the conversation he mentioned that his wife had an outbreak of shingles. Asking to it, my father said that it can happen when the immune system is low and to my next query, he said that she had never had it before in her life. I knew that she had been vaccinated with the first Pfizer/Biotech vaccine a couple of weeks before, so I asked in a neutral inquiring tone, if perhaps it could be a side effect of the vaccine. My father categorically ruled that possibility out and said it had also been now 3 weeks since the vaccine (actually only 2 as I had written down the date). And, my father said, the doctor had also ruled it out. So all is well in the vaccine world. I did wonder what had happened to my father and his keen and astute observing eyes of crops and livestock when he was a farmer. Such a keen eye for subtle changes and an ability to connect the dots, had been most useful for him then but seemed lost now in connection with the corona virus.
Interestingly, the name of shingles in our mother language, Danish, is 'Helvedes ild', which directly translates as Hell's fire. After speaking with my father, I searched on the net and within less than two minutes, a few articles were there talking about a study in Israel where a possible connection was there between covic vaccination and shingles. The vaccine mentioned in the study was Pfizer.
A new study from Israel found that 1.2% of patients with autoimmune inflammatory rheumatic diseases developed shingles after receiving the Pfizer-BioNTech coronavirus vaccine.
