Yet another horrible vaccine reaction reported to the AVN
I just received the following report and am trying to get more details. What I have found out is that this child was hospitalised 2 hours after receiving a vaccine or vaccines - but the hospital and doctors have not made the link between the reaction and the vaccination. How many others like this are taking place? Unless the government has the intestinal fortitude to require vaccine reaction reporting with penalties (or unless we put enough pressure on them to force them to find that intestinal fortitude) for practitioners who don't report, we will never know. It is up to us to push this and we will be starting a campaign to get this legislation passed within a fortnight upon my return from Perth.
Hi Meryl,
I received a call today from a practitioner in Sydney wanting to help an 11month old girl. XXXXXXX who is my director suggested I contact you as it is in regards to an adverse reaction to a vaccine and we are all not up to date what the best treatment/advice is. I was hoping that you could assist me in passing onto the practitioner any assistance to the child. (I informed the person that the AVN are not practitioners and cannot provide medical advice but did put them in touch with several practitioners who specialise in the treatment of vaccine injuries).
Details - The child has just come out of intensive care - Serious brain damage - Lost suckling reflex - Limp body and hasn’t got strength to open her eyes - Has a twitch in one of her toes - She is on Oxcarbazepine, clobazam & keppra. Which are all anticonvulsants. Clobazam is also an anxiolytic.
I don't know about you out there reading this, but it is starting to make me physically ill - reading about and hearing about all these children who the government and the drug companies seem to consider to be expendable. Especially since they constantly try to sweep these reactions under the carpet and deny they have happened.
If ANYONE reading this knows of someone who became ill within a short time of a vaccine, please urge them to report it via our website - www.avn.org.au or on the phone - 1800 007 468 (number only good in Australia and only for reporting of adverse vaccine reactions).
All the best, Meryl
