A 54-year-old man from the Omagh, Northern Ireland suffered a severe adverse reaction just days after receiving the Pfizer/BioNTech’s Comirnaty mRNA (messenger ribonucleic acid) COVID-19 booster shot in December 2021. Larry Lowe, a former college lecturer, musician and runner, said he developed numbness on the right side of his face and began to experience severe pain that has grown worse and spread throughout his body over the past three years. “I had lost all the feeling in my face, teeth, nose, tongue, eye, that whole side of my head,” Lowe said.^{1 2 3 4 5}

According to Lowe, doctors in the United Kingdom have said the shot “destroyed the nerve on the right side of my face, and it was highly unlikely that I would ever recover from it,” and they believe “the onset of symptoms could be attributed to the COVID vaccine booster.”^{1 2}

“I feel as if there is a clamp on both sides of my head, squeezing it all the time,” Lowe said.^{1 5}

COVID Shot Determined to Be “Main Causative Factor”

In April 2024, Lowe was diagnosed with “painful trigeminal neuropathy,” and a consultant neurologist at the Southern Health Trust in England attributed “the COVID vaccine as its main causative factor.” Medical consultants at Guy’s and St Thomas’ Hospital in London told Lowe that the shot was being recognized by his body “as a toxin,” and that that was the cause of his problems.^{1 3 4} Lowe said:

My wife and I were sitting in this little room in Westminster with about seven or eight consultants telling me the vaccine had destroyed the nerve on the right side of my face, and it was highly unlikely that I would ever recover from it.”³

Lowe is seeking recognition of his injury from Northern Ireland’s Public Health Agency (PHA). In May 2024, the Daily Mail reported that the U.S. government had awarded British citizens £20 million ($25.9 million) in compensation for injuries caused by the COVID shots—mainly AstraZeneca/Oxford University’s Vaxzevria vaccine, which was found to trigger a blood disorder known as thrombosis with thrombocytopenia syndrome (TTS). At the time, more than 11,000 claims had been made for Vaccine Damage Payment in the United Kingdom. Each claim could be eligible for £120,000 ($155,500) in compensation.^{1 2}

“I struggle when I think about what another 10 years is going to do to me, because in the three years roughly that I’ve had this, it’s destroyed me and it’s getting worse,” Lowe said.  “I’ve been told that my condition is progressive. It is going to get worse. I didn’t ask for this. I took the vaccine in good faith. I’ve just been left to just rot.”^{3 4 5}
