There are plenty of “harmless” viruses that we figured out later had horrible long term effects. Epstein-Barr/mono is probably one of them. Evidence is leaning towards it being the cause of Multiple Sclerosis.
It will be interesting to see what the results of future vaccinations for a lot of these turn out to solve.
