Atypical facial onset Guillain-Barré syndrome following first dose of COVISHIELD vaccine

Abstract

In the midst of the global pandemic of COVID-19 and its significant morbidity and mortality reported across the world due to severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (SARS), it has always been posing a new set of complications each passing day. As we are still in the process of understanding about the complications related to COVID-19, we are encountered with complications related to immunization for COVID-19. We are reporting a case of facial onset Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) in the patient who received first dose of COVISHIELD vaccine a couple of weeks prior to the onset of his illness.
