Abstract

This article, published in Frontiers in Neurology, explores the relationship between Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) and COVID-19, as well as the potential association between GBS and COVID-19 vaccination. GBS is an immune-mediated polyneuropathy that can cause weakness or sensory loss. The authors highlight the need for further research to confirm the causal relationship between COVID-19 vaccines and GBS. The article also references three studies related to COVID-19 vaccination, which provide valuable insights into its impact on hospital admissions, mortality rates, and the occurrence of GBS.
