Truth : Celine Dion Did Not Get Stiff Person Syndrome From Vaccine!

It’s now tradition for anti-vaccination activists to immediately blame all celebrity deaths or illnesses on the COVID-19 vaccine.

This is yet another example of FAKE NEWS created or propagated by anti-vaccination activists, and here are the reasons why…

Fact #1 : Celine Dion Did Not Get Stiff Person Syndrome From Vaccine!

Let me just start by pointing out that Celine Dion most definitely did not develop Stiff Person Syndrome from the COVID-19 vaccine… because she had been suffering from it for over a decade!

Céline Dion (born Céline Marie Claudette Dion on 30 March, 1968) announced in an emotional video on 8 December 2022, that she had been struggling with health issues for a long time. In fact, she first developed signs and symptoms of Stiff Person Syndrome more than 14 years earlier!

In a 23 May 2024 interview with Vogue, Céline Dion shared how she first noticed symptoms of the rare disorder. It was 2008 and Dion was on her “Taking Chances World” tour, when she shared, “quite rapidly, I was having difficulty controlling my voice“.

Then, during her Las Vegas residency and five more tours, she noticed her muscles stiffening and she eventually needed support while walking.

In a 11 June 2024 interview with Hoda Kotb on the Today show, Celine Dion also revealed that she ignored her condition to care for her ailing husband, who was suffering from throat cancer, as well as her family. She also tried to hide her condition from her family, but eventually, her symptoms became too much to ignore:

My husband as well was fighting for his own life. I had to raise my kids, I had to hide. I had to try to be a hero.

Feeling my body leaving me, holding on to my own dreams… I could not do this anymore. Lying for me, the burden was too much. Lying to the people who got me where I am today, I could not do it anymore.

It was only when the COVID-19 pandemic hit that Céline Dion was forced to slow down her pace, and it gave her time to finally get some answers.

When the pandemic arrived, I said to myself, the universe makes no mistakes, and I will take this time — this opportunity — to search.

After additional testing, her doctors finally diagnosed her with Stiff Person Syndrome (SPS) – a rare and incurable neurological disorder with features of an autoimmune disease.

Her symptoms became so “severe and persistent” that on 19 October 2021, she delayed her Las Vegas residency. Then on 15 January 2022, she was forced to cancel the US and Canadian concerts from 9 March to 22 April 2022.

To be clear – Celine Dion first noticed symptoms of Stiff Person Syndrome more than 11 years before the COVID-19 pandemic, and more than 13 years before COVID-19 vaccines became widely available. Her condition also progressively deteriorated years before the COVID-19 pandemic and vaccines.

So she definitely did not develop Stiff Person Syndrome from the COVID-19 vaccine, and neither did the COVID-19 vaccine exacerbate her condition.

Fact #2 : COVID-19 Vaccines Do Not Cause Stiff Person Syndrome

Many anti-vaccination activists are pointing out that Stiff Person Syndrome (SPS) is one of the 1,291 Adverse Events of Special Interest (AESI) found in 9 pages of a Pfizer document that was released by the FDA.

As I explained back in March 2022, the “List of Adverse Events of Special Interest” (AESI) is NOT a list of side effects caused by the Pfizer mRNA vaccine. Rather, that was a list of 1,291 potential adverse events that Pfizer was specifically looking for when vaccinated people send in their reports through VAERS or the Yellow Card systems.

Just because Stiff Person Syndrome is in the AESI list does not mean the vaccine causes it. It is just one of the many adverse events Pfizer wanted their post-authorisation safety teams to look out for. To be clear – there is no evidence that any COVID-19 vaccine can possibly cause Stiff Person Syndrome.

Fact #3 : AESI List Is Generic + Includes Irrelevant Adverse Events

While anti-vaccination activists keep insisting that the AESI list is a list of Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine side effects, that’s nonsense. The AESI list is generic and not specific to the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine, because it was determined before clinical trials even began!

That’s why the AESI list includes diseases caused by other viruses – Herpes, MERS, Varicella; as well as “exposure to SARS-CoV-2” and other “communicable disease”.

The list also included manufacturing and lab test issues, like “Manufacturing laboratory analytical testing issue, Manufacturing materials issue, Manufacturing production issue“. Even product supply issues were included – “Product availability issue, Product distribution issue, Product supply issue“.

They are obviously not vaccine side effects, nor related in any way to the performance or safety of the vaccine.
