"He was disorientated but able to follow simple
commands. He had involuntary jaw opening with slow rhythmic movements of his lower facial muscles at rest, which also interfered with his speech. He had reduced eye blinking, hypometric horizontal saccade and jerky pursuit."
SarsCov2: Atypical virus...atypical effects on the brain.
💉A few jabs goes a long way towards potentially
avoiding a world of symptoms...none of them good.
'Acute necrotizing encephalopathy (ANE) is a rapidly progressing encephalopathy characterized by fever, depressed level of consciousness, and neuro-motor manifestations, often including seizures.'

Authored by the late Dr / Col Ogden Bruton, a legend in the Primary Immunodeficiency world. Image
