BBC News - Nobel Prize goes to scientists behind mRNA Covid vaccines

New study suggests that SARS-CoV-2 infection is associated with increased risk of Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS), a condition in which the immune system attacks the nerves, while Pfizer-BioNTech mRNA COVID-19 vaccine is associated with decreased risk of GBS.

The Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine 2023: Awarded jointly to Katalin Karikó and Drew Weissman for "their discoveries concerning nucleoside base modifications that enabled the development of effective mRNA vaccines against COVID-19."

A population-based cohort study of 142,006 live births in Ontario, Canada, found maternal mRNA COVID-19 vaccination during pregnancy was associated with lower risks of severe neonatal morbidity, neonatal death, and NICU admission compared with no maternal COVID-19 vaccination before delivery.
