Beware of anecdotal social media sources.  Rely on scientists.  So far, this hasn’t been reported by any credible scientists or doctors that I know of.  And all of my doctor friends and relatives can’t wait to get the vaccine.

My friend had this about 15 years ago and it took well over a month to resolve.  It was hard for her to even talk.  She is concerned she may be prone to this condition and that the vaccine may trigger this again.  She cannot find any information if this may be the case.  In any event the cases are small and certainly better than getting Covid.

It has been reported on our local news that Bells Palsy has been a "side effect" for  3 patients who received the vaccine.

While Bell's Palsy is no joke I would rather have that temporarily than have Covid. JMO.
