This claim is false. Extensive studies and real-world data from millions of people worldwide show that mRNA vaccines, such as those for COVID-19, are safe and effective. Regulatory agencies like the CDC, FDA, and World Health Organization have found no credible evidence linking mRNA vaccines to widespread or irreversible brain damage. Like all vaccines, they can have side effects, but serious neurological complications are extremely rare.

The claim that mRNA vaccines have caused massive, irreversible brain damage is false. According to neurology.org, serious side affects from the mRNA vaccine are extremely rare. Only about 12 cases were reported to be somewhat serious side affects per 10,000 cases. Furthermore, it shows that only infections are actually dangerous and not the vaccine. 

Next, according to news medical life science, only about 5% of the people who go the vaccine experienced any symptoms. This 5% also belonged to a group of Moderna vaccine instead of getting the Pfizer vaccine. 

Lastly, nebraskanamed had this to say, " 'No, there is no solid evidence to back up this claim,' says Dr. Cawcutt. COVID-19 vaccines do not go into your body and acutely kill brain and heart cells. What matters is how a person’s body interacts with the spike protein, either from the infection itself or from the vaccine.

The claim presented is false when diving deeper into the linked article you will find that the piece is built fundamentally off of the opinions of Dr. Bhakdi and not proven studies. 

Nebraska Medicine released an article debunking this claim with Dr. Cawcutt stated that there is no solid evidence to back up the claim that mRNA vaccines (covid-19) cause any brain damage let alone irreversible brain damage. The article mentions one case where a Parkinson's disease patient's condition worsened after receiving the Covid-19 vaccine, due to preexisting conditions of the patient and only one reported case out off all the covid vaccinations given the conclusion can not be drawn that mRNA vaccines cause irreversible brain damage. https://www.nebraskamed.com/COVID/you-asked-we-answered-do-covid-vaccines-kill-brain-and-heart-cells 

USA Today dives deeper into debunking this claim with an explanation on how Covid-19 (mRNA) vaccine was made. The Covid-19 vaccine did not contain the live virus of Covid-19 instead the vaccines were dead viruses used to train the immune system to create corresponding antibodies. The article states that live Covid-19 when put into the body can cause brain damage however the dead virus in the vaccine is not capable of irreversible brain damage.

A Neurological Events Reported after COVID-19 Vaccines published by PubMed dived deep into the statistics of people injected with the Covid-19 vaccine and the amount of people who reported neurological side effects. Approximately 0.03% of recipients reported a neurological side effect. The article goes on to state “Reports of serious neurological events following COVID vaccination are rare [and] GBS, CVT and seizure may occur”. This research contradicts the claim of “massive, irreversible brain damage”
