Reply to comment by Wagamaga in Scientists have found there is no evidence that the COVID-19 vaccination increases the incidence of Guillain-Barré syndrome, a rare neurological disorder in which the body’s immune system attacks the nerves by Wagamaga

From the conclusion:

>Although the reporting rate of GBS after COVID-19 vaccination was not
statistically different than that of the general population, the
increased reporting of GBS within the first 6 weeks after COVID-19
vaccination, more so than with other vaccinations, suggests that some
cases of GBS are temporally associated with COVID-19 vaccination.
However, there is a reduction in the reporting rate of GBS after other
vaccines, compared to reporting rates pre-COVID-19, highlighting
limitations inherent in any passive surveillance system. These findings
warrant continuous analysis of GBS after COVID-19 vaccination.
