Steroid Responsive Still’s Disease after COVID-19 Vaccination

Approximately a third of COVID-19 vaccine recipients develop transient fever

It is important to recognize that a constellation of symptoms in addition to fever should prompt recognition of Still’s Disease.

Adult onset Still disease, also known as systemic onset juvenile idiopathic arthritis, is a systemic inflammatory disorder characterized by inflammatory polyarthritis, daily fever, and a transient salmon-pink maculopapular rash.

A serum ferritin level of more than 1000 ng/ml is common in this condition.

Sharabi and colleagues described two cases of adult onset still disease after the Pfizer mRNA COVID-19 vaccine.

Both cases were serious, involved myopericarditis, and required hospitalization and and treatment with pulsed corticosteroids.

The major points for patients and doctors are to pay attention to fever and associated symptoms after mRNA vaccination.

There are vaccine injury syndromes that are steroid-responsive and complicated courses including hospitalization can be potentially be avoided.

    Looks like damage from the shots continues to expand, yet “they” keep pushing them. How does one wake up billions of brain dead morons? Refuse to comply if not for your own sake then for someone else.
