This is not an anti-vax book. This is a book about a group of patients who wanted to be protected against Covid-19. Unfortunately, they’ve experienced serious medical problems since vaccination. Their numbers are estimated to be in the millions; many aren’t recovering. This is also a book about the estimated 400 million people worldwide living with long Covid, many of whom aren’t recovering either. Neither of these groups is getting adequate help from health-care professionals or the government. Some patients contend that had the government taken ME/CFS (aka myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome) seriously for the past 40 years, physicians would better understand how to treat not only the 65 million with ME/CFS but those with Covid-vaccine injuries and long Covid as well.
But instead of confronting these diseases, some scientists continue to peddle cognitive therapy as effective, dismiss Covid-vaccine injuries as “rare” and designate long Covid and ME/CFS as “post-infectious,” echoing conventional wisdom that’s based on guesswork, not facts. Science reporter Mindy Kitei uncovers compelling research that vaccine injuries are common and that there may be nothing post-infectious about long Covid or ME/CFS. And that would mean that these patients are still battling active infections.
Many symptoms of the three maladies are remarkably similar: the brain fog, the pain, the neuropathy, the mast cell activation syndrome, the post-exertional collapse and the autonomic dysfunction (including POTS). While the three diseases have different triggers-and likely different cures-they may still respond to some of the same treatments, many of which are detailed in Shots in the Dark.
And, finally, Shots in the Dark tracks the scientists doing critical research into these diseases, including those testing promising antiviral combinations; the patients who’ve discovered effective treatments; and those still searching, determined to regain their health.
