Australian mom denied heart transplant due to her COVID-19 vaccination status

A mother has been denied the opportunity to receive a heart transplant because she is not vaccinated for COVID-19, despite having a medical exemption.
Vicki Derderian, from Melbourne, relies on a ventricular assist device to keep her heart functioning after it failed in 2020, and is desperate for a transplant.
quote:
Ms. Derderian, a mother of two, expressed her frustration with the Victorian Department of Health and Human Services for their stance, which she characterized as “no jab, no heart.”
“The hospital stance at the moment is no jab, no heart. I‘m ready to be on the heart transplant list because medically I’m stable to be on it. But unfortunately, because of these mandates, it has interfered with patient-doctor relationships,” she told Channel 9’s Today show.
“Patients like myself, we‘re being pushed into a corner and coerced to take something that goes against what we believe in. Or not receive lifesaving treatment. And also for doctors as well, they are forced to implement this on their patients otherwise they’ll lose their jobs.”
quote:
Former Deputy Chief Health Officer Dr. Nick Coatsworth expressed empathy for Ms. Derderian‘s situation but stood by the rules.
He remained adamant the biggest risk to a patient is getting Covid-19 without being vaccinated, which could result in death and the loss of the transplanted organ.

This should be on the Poli Board, and she should get the vaccine.

I get it. On the other hand, if you have kids and your death is assured without a new heart, you get the shot.
Then sue for being forced into it.

We need more vigilantism in 2023.

Someone immunocompromized like a transplant recipient is the exact kind of person who does NOT need the shot.

Authoritarians delight. I'll bet some even support "anti fascism."

There are a pile of greasy leftists, like froman and mmcgrath, that whole-heartedly believe Covid is deadlier than heart failure. They are the useful idiots their slave masters rely on to spread the propaganda.

She had a medical exemption due to her heart failure issues, and you want her to get a shot that guarantees more pulmonary issues? Why?

Whoa, timeout now.
At least make sure it's a match first.

It's sad COVID-19 has become so political.
That has cost/is costing lives too.

the state should not be involved in healthcare, education, transportation, energy or anything else besides the national defense.
these officials should be tarred and feathered on national tv.
