Herpes zoster reactivation -- a.k.a. shingles -- following COVID-19 vaccination in six patients with comorbid autoimmune/inflammatory diseases may be a new adverse event associated with the Pfizer/BioNTech mRNA vaccine, suggested a new report.
At two centers in Israel, there have been six cases of herpes zoster developing shortly after administration of the Pfizer vaccine in patients with disorders such as rheumatoid arthritis since December 2020, according to Victoria Furer, MD, of Tel Aviv University, and colleagues.
Little has been known about the safety and efficacy of the COVID-19 vaccines among patients with rheumatic diseases, because immunosuppressed individuals were not included in the initial clinical trials, they explained.
Accordingly, an observational study has been conducted at the Tel Aviv Medical Center and the Carmel Medical Center in Haifa, monitoring post-vaccination adverse events in patients with rheumatoid arthritis, spondyloarthropathies, connective tissue diseases, vasculitis, and myositis. This interim analysis included 491 patients and 99 controls, with events reported during the 6-week post-vaccination monitoring period. The prevalence among patients was 1.2% versus none in controls, Furer and colleagues reported in Rheumatology.
"We haven't seen any additional cases so far," Furer told MedPage Today. However, "further surveillance of potential adverse effects following anti-COVID-19 vaccination in patients with rheumatic diseases is warranted," she added.

Somebody needs to investigate how much money Shingrex has spent on Advertising for the last 5 years and see if it spiked up after the Vaccine rollout in Q1 2020.
Companies know stuff they don’t tell anyone, but their actions can sometimes hint at what they know.
I had heard that.
It was Merck’s wasn’t it?
As another FReeper has posted before, “Stupid is supposed to be painful”.
i think so..though the reason it was pulled was supposedly because the new vax is better and not because of the class action lawsuits
I took the shingles vax a few years ago. If you ever have shingles, and I have, you would take your chances with anything that would prevent or mitigate a shingles outbreak. My two cents.
What a great tag line.
i am trying to keep posts like this in mind as I get prepared for the shingles.
I am seeing a neurotoxologist soon so I will be asking about it.
I had the Pfizer vax (2 doses) in March. I had the shingles vax (2 doses) last summer. So far, no shingles.
“It is tieing the virus to impaired immune response in humans.”
Back in 2020 when the mRNA vaccines were first getting talked about I read some paper of mRNA studies that had been developed for SARS. It worked against SARS, but then when the animals (ferrets??) were exposed to other viruses they all developed immune deficiency disorder.
I know lots of people with shingles of late. Figured it was the vax based on the people.
Oh yeah, he’s a hook, line and sinker progressive. I dont know what my girl seen in him. They try to impose no politics or covid talk when they come over, then one of them broaches the forbidden subject and they get broadsided by me with reckless abandon. Then its nice and enjoyably quiet in my house for 10 maybe 12 minutes.
This is the messenger message I got on it.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The UK government admits that vaccines have damaged the natural immune system of those who have been double-vaccinated. The UK government has admitted that once you have been double-vaccinated, you will never again be able to acquire full natural immunity to Covid variants - or possibly any other virus. So let’s watch the “real” pandemic begin now! In its Week 42 “COVID-19 Vaccine Surveillance Report”, the UK Department of Health admits on page 23 that “N antibody levels appear to be lower in people who become infected after two doses of vaccination”. It goes on to say that this drop in antibodies is essentially permanent. What does this mean? We know that vaccines do not prevent infection or transmission of the virus (indeed, the report elsewhere shows that vaccinated adults are now much more likely to be infected than unvaccinated ones).
The British now find that the vaccine interferes with the body’s ability to make antibodies after infection not only against the spike protein but also against other parts of the virus. In particular, vaccinated people do not appear to form antibodies against the nucleocapsid protein, the envelope of the virus, which is a crucial part of the response in unvaccinated people. In the long term, the vaccinated are far more susceptible to any mutations in the spike protein, even if they have already been infected and cured once or more. The unvaccinated, on the other hand, will gain lasting, if not permanent, immunity to all strains of the alleged virus after being naturally infected with it even once.
The first insurance companies are backing down because a huge wave of claims is coming their way. Anthony Fauci confirms that the PCR test cannot detect live viruses. Anthony Fauci confirms that neither the antigen test nor the PCR test can tell us whether someone is contagious or not!!! This invalidates all the foundations of the so-called pandemic. The PCR test was the only indication of a pandemic. Without PCR-TEST no pandemic For all the press workers, doctors, lawyers, prosecutors etc.
Give him a copy of RFK’s book. :)
Let him suffer and keep worshiping the faux science BS. Stupid is as stupid does…
That can’t be true. Everyone said it’s “safe and effective” and we all know that means it’s all good and no bad for all forever.
It’s pretty much pharmaceutical perfection in a syringe that you need inside of you asap to protect you and all around you from covid-19. That’s what they said.
The stars and musicians and politicians, too, all told us this and the esteemed Dr. Fauci confirmed it many times on and off camera.
And we trust them and because we need this to be true, we believed them and got vaxxed and boosted however many times they said to do it. No harm, no foul, right?
Have an elderly friend (84) and since the second shot her shingles have flared up.
I had the Pfizer vax (2 doses) in March. I had the shingles vax (2 doses) last summer.

Would I be prying if I asked you if you also take the flu shots?
The vast differences in the batches of the different vaccines points to some very troubling issues. Like where do those growth mediums come from, the variability says that the source varies or is contaminated constantly. Or maybe it’s the virus being grown that varies and is contaminated.
It all boils down to a lack of quality control stemming from the blanket granting of immunity from liability.
I also did the flu shot; but I passed on the COVID booster, much to my doctor’s chagrin.
