Re Bell’s Palsy as an Adverse Event

I made comments regarding cases of Bell’s Palsy (with facial droop) as a result of the vaccine on 31 March 2021. At the time, there seemed to be few cases, or at least cases that were studied. In any case, to follow up, I checked the VAERS and EudraVigilance for reported cases of Bell’s Palsy as a result of the so-called vaccines.

US (as of 30 July 2021)

There are 3,156 cases of Bell’s Palsy, equivalent to 0.58% of reported adverse events. Although this is not the most popular, it is much closer to the top of the list than the bottom.

I am not sure if it is related or not, but there are also 3,357 cases of facial paralysis, equivalent to 0.62% of reported adverse events.
