Commonly infection by virus or bacteria precedes the onset of GBS, but sometimes a vaccination or surgery may trigger the onset. More :ently HIV has been implicated in the development of the disease. Classically, GBS has an ite onset and the devastating acute course may take a person from being absolutely normal to iridden and on respirator within 2 or 3 days. The progression usually occurs over 10 to 12 ays before a plateau is reached, followed by a gradual recovery or partial recovery.
