What Prion Diseases (99% Fatal) Have To Do With Covid-19 Or Its Vaccines.
Dissecting the hypotheses/theories linking Covid-19 and its vaccines to prion diseases.
Since last year, I’ve received emails asking if Covid-19 or Covid-19 vaccines are related to prion diseases, also called transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs), a rare neurodegenerative brain disorder known as the most lethal disease known to mankind.
If you get prion disease, the chances of survival are almost 0%. About 85% of cases die within the first year of symptom onset. Prion disease is universally fatal because — unlike pathogens like bacteria and viruses —prions don’t get recognized by the immune system as a threat. So, prions inevitably degenerate neurons in the brain and kill the victim within a few years, causing progressive neurological symptoms along the way.
For this reason, prions are an enigmatic entity that separates itself from other pathogens or infectious diseases. Prions are just infectious proteins (yes, they are transmissible, mainly via contact with contaminated meat or brain tissues through cannibalism) devoid of genetic codes.
However, prion diseases are rare, affecting one in a million people per year, and about 5–15% of cases are genetically inherited. And all…
