New Crown Vaccine | Hong Kong University Research: Up to 5 people with facial paralysis per 100,000 people get more benefits than risks

[08:00] Leung Zhuowei, Dean of the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Hong Kong, conducted a study in Hong Kong from February to March this year to understand the relationship between vaccinators and Bell’s facial paralysis. Among the more than 450,000 Kexing vaccinators, 28 People were clinically diagnosed with facial paralysis, and among the more than 530,000 people who were vaccinated with Fubitai, 16 were confirmed to suffer from facial paralysis.

Comparing the background incidence rate in 2020, it is found that 4.8 cases of facial paralysis will increase after every 100,000 people vaccinated with Kexing vaccine; and 2 cases of facial paralysis will increase after every 100,000 people vaccinated with Fubitai vaccine.

The team believes that the results indicate that the risk of paralysis after vaccination with Kexing vaccine has increased, but the benefit of injections is still higher than the risk, and more than 90% can recover within 9 months.
