Brianne Dressen

Brianne Dressen is REACT19’s co-Chair. A previously healthy preschool teacher and mother of two young children, Brianne’s life changed when she participated in the AstraZeneca clinical trial. After one shot in November 2020, she experienced severe paresthesia, double vision, and extreme sound, light, touch and teeth sensitivity. She also experienced tinnitus, brain fog, memory loss, limb weakness, motor dysfunction of her legs, and loss of bladder control. This evolved into tachycardia, blood pressure fluctuations, temperature dysregulation, and “internal electric shocks” or internal vibrations. She began receiving treatment in June 2021 and has improved somewhat but is not yet out of the woods. In the meantime, she discovered a huge community of vaccine injured who, like her, were experiencing life-altering adverse reactions and getting little to no help from their communities, their medical teams, or their governments, which is what led her to start REACT19.
