Colleen Hess was a hiker, marathoner, and full of life. Following her COVID vaccine, she began battling neurological, cardiac, autoimmune symptoms that continue to impact her today. Dismissed by doctors and left without answers, she was forced to advocate for herself. She encourages others like her to fight for themselves, and when that is not enough, build a team of trusted loved ones. Her story is a powerful reminder that the injured deserve to be seen, heard, and believed.

Clinical researchers Dr Patterson and Dr Yogendra have published their long anticipated study that found the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein (S1) lingering in immune cells (CD16+ monocytes) up to 245 days after COVID-19 vaccination — in people without prior infection. These individuals reported persistent symptoms similar to Long COVID, including fatigue, brain fog, neuropathy, and headaches. The findings suggest that vaccine-derived spike protein may play a role in Post-COVID Vaccine Syndrome (PCVS), triggering a chronic inflammatory response. This raises important questions about long-term effects of the vaccines. Read the study here: https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/21645515.2025.2494934 (fb)
