Cytokine Storm Response to COVID-19 Vaccinations

Esmaeil Farshi

Vaccination against SARS-Cov-2 may lead to Cytokine Storm Syndrome in some vaccinated people. We tested vaccination in 33 monkeys and 200 mice and we found vaccinated animals were able to fight off the virus well with resulting a quickly clearing the virus from their lungs except two monkeys and 9 mice. Those two monkeys along 9 mice showed syndrome of cytokine storm in their lungs. This result is extremely important for human vaccination. The term “cytokine storm” actually recalls the role of the immune system in producing an uncontrolled and generalized inflammatory response [1]. The term cytokine storm was first used in describing the events modulating the onset of the graft-versus-host disease, a condition characterized by an impressively strong activation of the immune system [2].
