“There has been a significant increase in recent weeks that forces us to take actions as a state to protect the health and life of the population,” according to Peruvian Health Minister Cesar Vasquez, who was quoted in the report.

The report continued, “While Peru’s government and media have indicated that the outbreak of Guillain-Barre cases could be related to COVID-19, they have not acknowledged the elephant in the room; which is the question of whether or not Peru’s widespread adoption of the COVID jabs, and not the disease itself, has led to the outbreak.”

Guillain-Barre is a neurological-autoimmune problem that has a patient’s immune system attack the nervous systems.
