Which Vaccines are Most Commonly Linked to Guillain-Barré Syndrome?
Two vaccines are commonly linked to GBS: the flu shot and the HPV vaccine. The Journal of the American Medical Association says GBS is the most frequent neurological disease reported after getting the flu vaccine.
The flu shot is associated with 88% of the GBS cases that we have successfully represented. In one study, GBS symptoms appeared within six weeks of vaccination in 70% of HPV vaccine cases. GBS has also been linked to MMR, Tetanus, and other immunizations.

When I say “they went to bat” for me…this Law Firm literally did just that. They persevered to bring the hard-nosed Manufacturer to settle and provide me some recompense for everything I had to endure which led to this suit.
