The Pandemic Didn ’ t Really Change How Americans Think About Sickness
Thomas McDade, a biological anthropologist at Northwestern University, still remembers an advertisement for cold medicine he saw in late 2019. The ad showed a visibly sick businessman walking through an airport, “and the message was, ‘You can solider through this. You can make it,'” McDade says. That message didn’t age well. Only a few months later, the virus that causes COVID-19 began spreading across the globe, prompting health officials to beg people to stay home no matter what—but especially if they felt sick. Suddenly, soldiering through an illness wasn’t seen as admirable, but irre...

New ‐onset retroperitoneal fibrosis following COVID‐19 mRNA vaccination: Coincidental or vaccine‐induced phenomenon?
AbstractThe Pfizer-BioNTech mRNA vaccine is a US Food and Drug Administration-approved coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccine. Although it is reported to be safe and effective, immune dysregulation leading to autoimmunity has become an area of concern. Retroperitoneal fibrosis (RPF) is an immune-mediated fibroinflammatory disease characterized by the deposition of fibrous tissues, primarily around the abdominal aorta and iliac arteries. Herein, we report a case of RPF following Pfizer BioNTech COVID-19 mRNA vaccination. To the best of our knowledge, there have been no published reports on RPF after COVID-19 mRNA vacci...
