Thirteen Israelis suffered facial paralysis after the first dose of Pfizer’s new corona vaccine. The Israeli site “Yedioth Ahronot” reported.

“According to agency data, at least 13 people have symptoms of paralysis, but health system doctors believe that the number of such cases is actually higher,” the report said.

One vaccinated person also reported having a strange sensation on their cheeks and mouth within minutes of receiving the vaccine. The patient said the condition lasted at least 28 hours and the symptoms did not completely disappear.

The Ministry of Health has stated that those who develop paralysis after the first vaccination must recover and give a second vaccination. However, doctors question the advisability of receiving a second dose for people with facial paralysis.

Pfizer has announced that it will temporarily cut its supply of new coronavirus vaccines to Norway and other parts of Europe starting next week.


On December 9, it was revealed that six people had died during a trial of the Pfizer vaccine. It was also announced on December 31 that an 88-year-old Israeli man who had been vaccinated with the Pfizer vaccine had died.

On January 6, it was reported that two residents died one after another in a geriatric home in Norway a few days after vaccination.

Furthermore, at a medical institution in Virinus, the capital of Lithuania, 79 doctors who had initially been vaccinated with the Physer and BioNtec vaccines were confirmed to be infected with the corona virus.
