Justin Bieber shared a faith-filled update Monday about the rare medical condition that has resulted in half his face being paralyzed.

Anti-vaxxers are spreading the false notion that Bieber's condition is a COVID vaccine side effect.
"It depends a little bit on the distribution of that nerve in each person, and how much it's involved, but it can happen over I would say two or three days." The authors said that at the time of publication they weren't aware of any other reported cases of Ramsay Hunt syndrome following COVID-19 vaccination. Schaffner noted that there are other symptoms that are associated Ramsay Hunt Syndrome, such as dizziness and hearing loss. Unfortunately, the revelation of Bieber's condition has become fodder for anti-vaccine conspiracy theorists, who falsely connected Bieber's Ramsay Hunt syndrome to the COVID-19 vaccine. There is very limited evidence to suggest that Ramsay Hunt Syndrome can occur after vaccination. Bieber was born in 1994; the chicken pox vaccine became available in the United States in 1995, and it is unknown if the Canadian pop star was vaccinated as a baby. Thus, Ramsay Hunt syndrome is technically caused by the varicella-zoster virus, which is the same virus that causes chicken pox. Why varicella-zoster can cause shingles for some people, and Ramsay Hunt syndrome in other cases, is not well understood. "It took several years for the chicken pox vaccine to really become widely accepted," Schaffner said. "You can often see these blisters in your ear canal when the doctor looks in," which can cause deafness, he added. In the Instagram post in which he revealed the diagnosis, Bieber said he can't blink his right eye, nor can he smile on that side of his face. "As you can probably see from my face, I have this syndrome called Ramsay Hunt syndrome," the singer told fans in a video posted to social media.
