Dec. 2023 (Darren Cheng Han Teo et al) – The first reported case of new-onset mania and psychosis post heterologous bivalent mRNA COVID-19 booster vaccination (4th dose).
- there are case reports describing associated neuropsychiatric manifestations following COVID-19 vaccination, but none reported post heterologous bivalent boosting yet
- 47 year old man with no history of psychiatric illness presented with 4 day history of manic and psychotic symptoms after 1st Moderna bivalent COVID-19 vaccine a week prior to admission.
- Before this, he received 3 doses of Pfizer COVID-19 Vaccine without significant side effects.
- 3 days after Moderna mRNA bivalent, he reported developing an elevated mood, increased irritability, psychomotor agitation, increased energy, decreased need for sleep, increased distractibility, grandiosity and paranoid delusions relating to work and family.
- his ability to function at work was affected.
- he had no family history of psychiatric disorders.
- no history of substance or significant alcohol use, and he had been functioning well in his profession in the science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) discipline.
- A contrast-enhanced MRI brain was unremarkable
- His presentation was suggestive of an Other Specified Bipolar And Related Disorder With Manic And Mood-congruent Psychotic Features (DSM-V). Differential diagnosis (DSM-V) included Bipolar I Disorder and a Brief Psychotic Disorder
- He was started on oral Olanzapine, titrated up to 7.5 mg once daily in view of his manic and psychotic symptoms. He was discharged after 8 days of inpatient treatment, where he demonstrated full resolution of his manic and psychotic symptoms. Subsequently, he opted to stop the oral Olanzapine approximately 12 days after his discharge. He remained well one-month post discharge with a full reported recovery of his functioning when he was reviewed in the outpatient setting with no recurrence of the manic and psychotic symptoms.
Psychosis and Mania with COVID-19 Vaccines
- 37 year old Japanese man with no psychiatric history had Moderna booster
- He presented 4 days after Moderna jab with talkativeness and grandiose delusions, saying that he had won 2 billion yen in horse racing. Had emotional instability (crying), sleeplessness, excitement, hyperactivity and sexual deviance.
- He was discharged. Nine days after Moderna booster he jumped from the 2nd floor of his house, and was brought back to hospital by ambulance.
- He exhibited flight of ideas, hyperactivity, distraction, hyperthymia and religious delusions, such as saying “my child is God”. He displayed lack of insight and became enraged when his actions were restricted.
- Diagnosis: acute mania with psychotic features, stayed 66 days in the hospital.

My Take…
There are now case reports of psychosis and mania after 4th, 3rd, 2nd and 1st doses of Pfizer or Moderna COVID-19 Vaccines. Some of these cases result in suicide attempts.
This most recent case shows that the newer COVID-19 mRNA boosters, bivalent flavor, can also cause psychosis and mania, as did the original boosters and the original mRNA jabs.
I note several observations:
- The published cases only involve psychosis or mania that occurred within days or at most 2-3 weeks after the last mRNA dose. My guess is that the longer the time period after mRNA vaccination, the less likely a doctor is to link the psychosis to the jabs.
- Most cases are being published outside of the US, as foreign doctors are less likely to be threatened by their medical boards, and are less likely to be stripped of their licenses for reporting these cases and getting them published.
- Not all cases resolve with psychiatric drugs. Some result in permanent disability.
- Teenagers can develop psychosis after mRNA jabs as well – mandating kids, whether to be able to play sports or go to University/College was medical malpractice – the risks clearly outweighed any possible benefit.
- NO ONE is studying the long term effect of mRNA jabs on mental health.
-
Pfizer & Moderna COVID-19 mRNA Vaccines cause an increased risk of suicidal ideation, leading to suicide attempts. This is not controversial or a conspiracy theory. That risk alone should get these mRNA jabs pulled off the market.

The Worldwide Corona Crisis, Global Coup d’Etat Against Humanity
by Michel Chossudovsky
Michel Chossudovsky reviews in detail how this insidious project “destroys people’s lives”. He provides a comprehensive analysis of everything you need to know about the “pandemic” — from the medical dimensions to the economic and social repercussions, political underpinnings, and mental and psychological impacts.
“My objective as an author is to inform people worldwide and refute the official narrative which has been used as a justification to destabilize the economic and social fabric of entire countries, followed by the imposition of the “deadly” COVID-19 “vaccine”. This crisis affects humanity in its entirety: almost 8 billion people. We stand in solidarity with our fellow human beings and our children worldwide. Truth is a powerful instrument.”
Reviews
This is an in-depth resource of great interest if it is the wider perspective you are motivated to understand a little better, the author is very knowledgeable about geopolitics and this comes out in the way Covid is contextualized. —Dr. Mike Yeadon
In this war against humanity in which we find ourselves, in this singular, irregular and massive assault against liberty and the goodness of people, Chossudovsky’s book is a rock upon which to sustain our fight. –Dr. Emanuel Garcia
In fifteen concise science-based chapters, Michel traces the false covid pandemic, explaining how a PCR test, producing up to 97% proven false positives, combined with a relentless 24/7 fear campaign, was able to create a worldwide panic-laden “plandemic”; that this plandemic would never have been possible without the infamous DNA-modifying Polymerase Chain Reaction test – which to this day is being pushed on a majority of innocent people who have no clue. His conclusions are evidenced by renown scientists. —Peter Koenig
Professor Chossudovsky exposes the truth that “there is no causal relationship between the virus and economic variables.” In other words, it was not COVID-19 but, rather, the deliberate implementation of the illogical, scientifically baseless lockdowns that caused the shutdown of the global economy. –David Skripac
A reading of Chossudovsky’s book provides a comprehensive lesson in how there is a global coup d’état under way called “The Great Reset” that if not resisted and defeated by freedom loving people everywhere will result in a dystopian future not yet imagined. Pass on this free gift from Professor Chossudovsky before it’s too late. You will not find so much valuable information and analysis in one place. –Edward Curtin
