Facial Palsy Induced by Covaxin in Adolescent Female - A Rare Case Report.

Background: The world has seen nearly 2 years of a pandemic caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus, notoriously known as COVID-19. Several vaccines have been approved under Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) to combat the disease, one of which is Covaxin, an inactivated adjuvant SARSCoV- 2 vaccine that is generally well tolerated and has fewer side effects. However, we recently have seen a rare case of facial palsy (paralysis) following Covaxin vaccination in an adolescent girl.
