A major study by a team of South Korean researchers has linked Covid vaccines to a surge in a paralyzing neurological condition that damages the spinal cord.
The study found that Covid injections have triggered a 141% spike in acute transverse myelitis (ATM).
Myelitis is a rare neurological condition that causes inflammation of the spinal cord.
Symptoms can include paralysis, sensory loss, and mobility problems.
While some people with transverse myelitis have at least partial recovery, some people may have permanent effects.
The researchers note that the risk of developing the disorder is dramatically heightened within 42 days of vaccination.
The peer-reviewed study, led by Eunsun Lim and Yoo Hwan Kim, was conducted by a team of researchers from prominent academic medical centers in collaboration with Koreas COVID-19 Vaccine Safety Committee (CoVaSC).
