CNBC: Moderna vaccine side effect: rheumatoid arthritis

[Ms. Toad]

42. I know an incredibly large number of people with MS -

Starting with a member of the church I grew up in (who's been living with it since ~1966), the wife of a judge I worked for, my brother-in-law, two cousins, two members of my church LGBTQ group and about a dozen more I'm less closely connnected with.

The ones I listed I'm close enough to that I would have known about as a matter of course - the dozen or so more are largely people who shared the information because I've ridden in about 20 MS-150 bike rides. (Hoping to do one more - I had to drop out because of cancer, followed by a spiral fracture in my leg, and now COVID. I really want to stop riding on my own accord.)

It's such a destructive disease - for some, a chronic unwelcome pest for others, and pretty much everything in between. I hope yours stays in deep remission.
