Unfortunately, the 27-year-old mother and the 31-year-old father say their baby daughter has months to live.

Tragic events like wars, famines, earthquakes, and accidents create fearful memories in our brain. These memories continue to haunt us even after the actual event has passed. Luckily, researchers from Tokyo University of Science (TUS) have recently been able to understand the hidden biochemical mechanisms involved in the selective suppression of fearful memories, which is called fear extinction. The researchers, who had previously demonstrated fear extinction in mice using the chemically synthesized compound "KNT-127," have now identified the underlying mechanism of this compound's action. Their findings have been published recently in Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience.

While in most of the cases those who have received any of the Covid-19 vaccines will develop none or mild negative symptoms from receiving the vaccine, in very rare cases some of the vaccinated will develop more serious symptoms, sometimes autoimmune diseases, which will eventually result in death.
