Influenza and vaccination from it is a burning topic of modernity. Guillana Barre syndrome is fairly considered one of the most serious firemaster complications. Here are just scientists so far argue, which causes this syndrome - vaccination or actually flu.

In 1976, the vaccination against influenza was applied almost a fatal blow when there were reports that it causes Hyien-Barre syndrome - an autoimmune disease of the nervous system, characterized by non-riding gait, loss of sensitivity and loss of muscle control. Then the massive vaccination company was organized by the US government and 45 million Americans received vaccination against swine flu. Statistical studies confirm the causal connection between the vaccination and the syndrome of Guien-Barre. That year in Ohio, the level of morbidity by Hyien-Barre syndrome was 13.3 per 1 million grafts against influenza, while on a million unaccustomed - 2.6. Subsequent studies have shown a significantly increased morbidity of Guien-Barre syndrome in two other states during the first 6 weeks after receiving the vaccination. The incidence rate of this syndrome was 8.6 per million grafts in Michigan and 9.7 per million grafts in Minnesota. This story called «Pork influenza catastrophes», I beat off the doctors to the hunt to appoint this vaccination and strongly undermined the faith of the public in the vacation companies against influenza.
The relationship between Hyien Barre syndrome and influenza vaccination is not limited to the history with swine flu. The reports appearing before the message also testified to the defeats of the nervous system that followed soon behind the vaccination against influenza. Recent studies have also shown an increased risk of hyeien-barre syndrome in the 1992-93 influenza season and 1993-94, within 6 weeks after receiving the vaccination against influenza.
So in the first case, American scientists argue that the reason for the development of Guienen-Barre syndrome lies in vaccination against influenza, but the French researchers with this fact do not agree and lead the facts in confirmation of their theory.
Guillana Barre syndrome - a disease that affects peripheral nerves, its main symptoms are numbness and weakness of the muscles of the extremities. Up to this point, the occurrence of the syndrome was associated with vaccination based on the data on mass immunization against flu flu. Also, the syndrome may arise after an infectious disease, says the author of the study, Dr. Elian Galt.
The current study has substantiated that influenza infection is an impetus for the development of the syndrome, and its frequency of occurrence depends on the scale of the epidemic.
Scientists reviewed the data of 406 patients with Hyien Barre syndrome, while in 234 cases they failed to find the cause of the disease. They traced a monthly level of syndrome and compared with the level of influenza diseases and other respiratory infections, and also analyzed antibodies to influenza virus. Approximately 73 cases of Guien-Barre syndrome were caused by influenza. Almost 14% of the surveys showed signs of recently suffered influenza A, and 5.5% - flu virus influenza. In 8 of 10 patients, the flu developed during the epidemic, and 9 of these patients showed antibodies.
Researchers note that Guillana Barre syndrome itself is a rare phenomenon, but its frequency is reduced due to vaccinations.
So, whether to make influenza vaccinations or do not do - the personal decision of each person. But the question of the consequences of this vaccination and in particular the development of Guillana Barre syndrome remains open to this day.
