Abstract

A radical behavioral change was observed in a 17-year-old male 12 hours after having received vaccines for Meningococcus C, Hepatitis B, Triple Viral and Varicella on the same day. Moreover a manic episode was detected one week later. It was suspected that this was a case of post-vaccinal encephalitis. In spite of the absence of pathological findings in the complementary explorations carried out and although a temporal association has not been demonstrated to date in the scientific literature, we can not be certain of this diagnostic suspicion since we do not have the infectious serology or a study of antibodies in central spinal fluid. Serious side effects after vaccinations have never been clearly demonstrated, while it has been widely demonstrated that the acquired immunity from these vaccines is one of the greatest achievements of medicine, and this has helped to eradicate life-threatening diseases.
