Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease (CJD), also known as subacute spongiform encephalopathy or neurocognitive disorder due to prion disease, is a fatal degenerative brain disorder.[1][2] Early symptoms include memory problems, behavioral changes, poor coordination, and visual disturbances.[1] Later symptoms include dementia, involuntary movements, blindness, weakness, and coma.[1] About 70% of people die within a year of diagnosis.[1]
CJD is caused by a type of abnormal protein known as a prion.[3] Infectious prions are misfolded proteins that can cause normally folded proteins to also become misfolded.[1] About 85% of cases of CJD occur for unknown reasons, while about 7.5% of cases are inherited from a person's parents in an autosomal dominant manner.[1] Exposure to brain or spinal tissue from an infected person may also result in spread.[1] There is no evidence that sporadic CJD can spread between people via normal contact or blood transfusions, although this is possible in variant Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease.[4] Diagnosis involves ruling out other potential causes.[1] An electroencephalogram, spinal tap, or magnetic resonance imaging may support the diagnosis.[1]
There is no specific treatment for CJD.[1] Opioids may be used to help with pain, while clonazepam or sodium valproate may help with involuntary movements.[1] CJD affects about one per million people per year.[1] Onset is typically around 60 years of age.[1] The condition was first described in 1920.[1] It is classified as a type of transmissible spongiform encephalopathy.[5] Inherited CJD accounts for about 10% of prion disease cases.[6] Sporadic CJD is different from bovine spongiform encephalopathy (mad cow disease) and variant Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease (vCJD).[7]
COVID-19 vaccine
There have been reported incidences of people dying of this disease in connection with the COVID-vaccines. Neurological disorders are one of the main observed effects of the RNA vaccines. Immunologist J. Bart Classen published a paper in February 2021 outlining the potential for messenger RNA (mRNA) COVID vaccines to trigger development of prion diseases. These include Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), multiple system atrophy (MSA) and others.[8]
In a strange coincidence, AstraZeneca senior vaccine researcher José Baselga was stated to have died of CJD.
Cheryl Cohen, a "healthy 64-year-old woman from Florida" died three months after her second dose of Pfizer’s COVID vaccine. According to her daughter, Gianni, she received the first dose of Pfizer on April 5, and her second dose on April 25. On May 6, Cheryl experienced her first episode indicating “something was neurologically wrong.” At first doctors couldn’t find anything medically wrong with Cheryl other than a slightly elevated white blood cell count But then MRI imaging of the brain showed evidence of prion disease, and on July 12 a second lumbar puncture came back positive for CJD. No autopsy was performed.[9]
