A four-month-old baby in New Zealand is in urgent need of heart surgery due to what is known as pulmonary valve stenosis. This is a narrowing of the outflow path from the right ventricle to the pulmonary artery. But the child’s parents refuse the life-saving procedure unless they are sure the child is getting blood from unvaccinated donors. The New Zealand health authority now wants the authority to be revoked by the court.
The case is making waves in New Zealand. Parents are aware of how dangerous every extra day is for their child without surgery to save them. But the vehement opponents of vaccination are more concerned about residues in the blood of people who have been vaccinated against the coronavirus. “We don’t want blood contaminated by vaccines,” the father said a few days ago in an interview with the British “Guardian”.
battle for custody
The Te Whatu Ora health authority wants the court to grant custody so that the child can finally be treated. You act in the best interest of the child, which is insured. It is also said that blood banks in New Zealand do not distinguish between vaccinated and unvaccinated donors. The legal representative of the authority also points out that there are no reports of problems following transfusions of vaccinated blood.
The family’s lawyer, whose identity has not been released for security reasons, told the New Zealand Herald newspaper that the case is not only about parents’ concerns, which must be respected, but also about “fundamental rights”. This included “the refusal of therapy,” says Sue Grey.
Supporter of the family: ‘Donors have already contacted us’
A supporter of the family, and there aren’t many of them, told Radio New Zealand last week on the sidelines of a meeting ahead of a court hearing that “many unvaccinated donors have already come forward” wanting to help. “It is tyranny when the state prohibits us from freely donating blood to a patient in need,” complained Sarah McNaulty. The competent court is expected to rule in the case in the coming days.
