Appearing on "Fox & Friends Weekend" on Saturday morning to discuss the dire medical dilemma their family is facing, the parents of a teenage girl who is not vaccinated against COVID-19 revealed that their daughter has been unable to move forward with the kidney transplant she needs at Duke University Hospital in Durham, North Carolina.
Chrissy Hicks, the mom of 14-year-old Yulia Hicks, recounted her exchange about the issue with a medical official.
"I said, 'So basically you're telling us if she does not get the vaccine, then she's not getting a transplant,'" Chrissy Hicks said.

Bull. Do away with this dumb requirement for the Covid jab and your workforce will increase dramatically. You’ll have increased revenue too.

I'm kind of curious if the 'vaccination' is required when children have their breasts or other organs removed during 'transgender' surgery.

Destroy the hospital if it won't save lives.

No medical reason for this decision. Go to court. It may not save your daughter, but it will save someone else's child.

Disturbing. You may remember the veteran who was denied a kidney transplant by Baptist hospital, in Winston-Salem, a year or so ago. Yeah, I believe the medical profession wants to save lives....

Obviously, the powers-that-be in the Medical Community are afraid to admit they are wrong because their self-serving dictates during the Covid-19 scamdemic caused the unnecessary loss of so many lives. They must be afraid of being sued.

This is not uncommon, just a few weeks ago my grandson received a kidney transplant donated by his sister. They had not been vaccinated because they are in their early 20s and were more concerned about risk from the vaxx than of COVID. The hospital in Knoxville, TN wouldn’t allow the transplant until BOTH of them were vaccinated.

If the kidney is from a vaxxed donor the MRNA and spike protein in that kidney will be transferred to the recipient. Same for any blood transfusions. Better make a list of unvaxxed friends of your blood type in case of an emergency or you may be poisoned without your consent. The world has become even more dangerous.

Duke will likely buy its way out of this one, just as it did for the Duke Lacrosse Krystal Mangum rape hoax.
I have read of estimates as high as half a billion dollars in payouts to coaches and players in the LaCrosse case.
FYI, Krystal is in prison for murdering her pimp/boyfriend.

I can tell you from experience that kidney transplant teams across this country care about one and only one thing ....their success rate. This affects their funding and grants...
They will exclude anyone for any reason that might reduce their positive results.
Saving lives is dead last on their agenda!
Fortunately, Methodist in Houston did not require our donor to get vaccinated, like some hospitals have.
My cousin who received a kidney would be dead right now, instead fo thriving.

The hospital has already proven that the girl needs a transplant. Can they prove that getting the so-called vaccine will prevent her or anyone from getting Covid? Of course not. Having worked in the OR, I can tell you that hospitals have worked on people with far more serious and deadly diseases than Covid. Johns Hopkins Hospital once operated on a patient with an illness so deadly, that every medical device used in the case was destroyed. Surgical set and all. Besides, everyone in an operating room or entering an operating room is masked up and gowned up with the much more effective masks on then most people ever wore. My first thought was that Duke Hospital is probably more concerned about her recovery and condition after the surgery if she came down with Covid. Which brings us back to proof that the vaccine prevents anything.

This is discrimination and Duke University Hospital doesn't seem to care. . .

Also that the donor may had been vaccinated is a risk for the recipient. A real dilemma.

But they'd gladly perform a sex change on her without the clot shot.
