Progress for the COVID vaccine injured with REACT19 Co-Chairman Brianne Dressen

Brianne Dressen co-founded REACT19 to help support people with life-altering COVID-19 vaccine injuries after being injured herself in one of the original clinical trials, and then learning the hard way that little was available in terms of answers, research, treatments or support. Now she oversees the science-based non-profit React19, which has created a provider network, support groups, research collaborations, lobbying efforts, and a grant program to help pay for medical bills of injured patients.

The mentioned Yale studies are:

1. Comparative Analysis of Long COVID and Post-Vaccination Syndrome: A Cross-Sectional Study of Clinica Symptoms and Machine Learning-Based Differentiation

2. Immunological and Immunogenic Signatures Associated with Chronic Illness after COVID 19 Vaccination (Dr. Been's presentation explaining the findings is here).

3. Post-Vaccination Syndrome: A Descriptive Analysis of Reported Symptoms and Patient Experiences after COVID-19 Vaccination

The book about Brianne is here.

Brianne's documentary film is here.

React19.org's YouTube channel with more educational videos by Dr. Been and more is here.
