Study says herpes infection(s) may be linked to COVID-19 vaccines

A new study out this week paints a startling picture for people who may face adverse reactions due to receiving a COVID-19 vaccine. According to the study, Herpes Zoster may appear on some people after getting the vaccine and it isn’t clear why.

Researchers at the University of Tele Aviv discovered the feat in a so far contained group of people of about 6. Of about 400 or so case studies, about 6 turned up with variants of herpes after the first and second doses of the vaccination.
