Man In Greece Became Psychotic,Believed He Was Jesus After Yellow Fever Jab4th December 2011
The Mail on Sunday can now reveal that his absence from the screen earlier this year was due to an extreme illness after receiving a yellow fever vaccination.
Within hours of receiving the injection Mr Brabant’s temperature had spiked and his condition deteriorated rapidly.
He became psychotic, sobbed and saluted at television pictures of military uniforms during the Royal Wedding and believed he was Jesus. He and his family now believe that the Stamaril inoculation he received was contaminated.
Mr Brabant, 55, an award-winning veteran of the siege of Sarajevo, is currently in hospital in Copenhagen, the home town of his wife, best-selling Danish writer Trine Villemann.
He had the inoculation in April at the East Attica Vaccination Centre in Athens in preparation for a working trip to the Ivory Coast in West Africa. Within hours of the injection, his temperature rose to 104F.
Ms Villemann said: ‘Within two or three hours, he was shaking and shivering. The whole bed was rocking backwards and forward. It was awful.’
He developed insomnia and grew irritable and anxious. After seven days, he was admitted to a private hospital in Athens, where he began to suffer delusions.
‘He became psychotic,’ said his wife. ‘It began when doctors couldn’t knock the fever down. He slid into a place where he didn’t connect with reality. We were watching the Royal Wedding in hospital on April 29 and he started sobbing and saluting whenever he saw a military uniform.’
