Unvaccinated patients have mentioned half-jokingly that COVID-19 vaccination in friends and family makes some of them “crazy.” While I have always brushed this off as fear driven vaccine ideology taking over common sense in some zealots, the building literature on neuropsychiatric symptoms is alarming.
There are now ~10 papers describing headache, fever, and a range of acute neuropsychiatric symptoms after both mRNA and adenoviral COVID-19 vaccination. The strong bias among editors and publishers has kept countless papers out of the mainstream medical media, hence one has to look far and wide to find information on the topic of vaccine safety. Borovina et al., from Croatia, described three cases of acute headache followed by psychosis.

All three patients required hospitalization with exhaustive diagnostic testing and medical treatment. One of the cases progressed to attempted ѕυιcιdє with a knife stabbing to the abdomen requiring emergency abdominal surgery. As a doctor, I am disturbed by medical evidence demonstrating gene-coded SARS-CoV-2 Wuhan Institute of Virology Spike protein in the human brain after vaccination. I wonder how many subtle changes go clinically unrecognized. Even if a small number are affected, the massive numbers who came forward make any “rare” complication a common issue to face in clinical practice.
In conclusion, we should not downplay or attempt to normalize neuropsychiatric symptoms after COVID-19 shots. Every case should be taken seriously. ѕυιcιdєs after Dec. 10, 2020, should be investigated and the brand, doses, and dates of vaccination should be recorded by health care personnel and noted by family members.
