According to a Canadian study published in The Lancet, being vaccinated against the flu would reduce the risk of having a stroke.
What if the flu vaccine prevented the risk of stroke? That’s what advances a Canadian study published in the British scientific journal The Lancet and spotted by Point. According to Ministry of Healthevery year, 30,000 people die of a cerebrovascular accident (CVA) in France.
Who says injection says risk reduction?
In Canada, researchers at the University of Calgary have actually identified a link between the flu vaccine and the likelihood of having a stroke. The injection of the latter would reduce the risk of vascular accident.
How did the study come to this conclusion? To do this, the researchers analyzed analyzed the medical records of more than 4 million people over nine years. Conclusion: “Our results show that the risk of stroke is lower in people who have recently received an influenza vaccine. This was true for all adults, not just those at high risk of having a stroke.”explain the researchers.
How long after the vaccine do you notice the effects?
Six months after vaccination against the flu, the risk of suffering from a stroke would be reduced, according to the study. Note that both men and women would benefit from this “protective bond”.
In addition, a flu vaccination would be a way to prevent strokes, say the scientists who worked on this research.
As reminded South Westin 2016 already, Australian doctors demonstrated that influenza vaccination could precisely prevent the risk of myocardial infarction, in proportions ranging from 15% to 45%.
The flu vaccination campaign runs from October 18, 2022 to January 31, 2023 and is open to everyone, points out public service website.
