JD Vance’s 12-year-old relative denied heart transplant because she is unvaccinated

A 12-year-old Indiana girl who is related to Vice President JD Vance has been barred from a spot on a heart transplant list because she’s not been vaccinated against COVID-19 and the flu, according to her parents.

Adaline Deal, a distant relative of the VP by marriage through his half-siblings, was born with two rare heart conditions that her family knew would one day require a transplant, her mother Janeen Deal told The Cincinnati Enquirer.

Adaline — who was adopted from China when she was 4 — was treated at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital for nearly 10 years, and her parents hoped she would get the transplant there.

...

A Cincinnati Children’s spokesperson declined to confirm that Adaline had been kept off the transplant list, but told the Enquirer that the hospital’s clinical decisions are “guided by science research and best practices” and that the hospital follows guidelines from the National Institutes of Health.

I can see holding off on giving their child the Covid vax, but shouldn’t she at least have a flu shot?

One of my brothers had long term problems as a child and spent years in treatment at a major Children's Hospital in Connecticut. It was at this Hospital where he was abused and exploited by some pedophile Doctors, he never got over the things that happened to him and it ruined his life. Google Dr.George Reardon, Connecticut Children's Hospital for the horror stories

Revoke the medical licenses of all involved...

On the other side, who’s to say the heart received isn’t contaminated with mRNA.

Bad things should happen to any medical professional that would enforce that restriction. Loss of job, disbarment, punitive fines sufficient to bankrupt them, and a good ol’ tar and feathering before being kicked out on the street.

Only certain approved hospitals are designated as “heart transplant” approved. Cardiologist and doctors make referrals to these hospitals for evaluation of their patients. if they are deemed in need of a heart, they then go through a rigorous physical, social and mental evaluation. There can NOT be any underlying diseases or illnesses such as diabetes, kidney/liver failure etc. Weight must be within fifteen pounds of average, either way. Smoking, alcoholism, drug usage is an immediate rejection. Each hospital has a board that votes to submit this patient to the National Donor list which is governed by the FDA.

FDA:
Regulates heart transplant components, including
Donor eligibility requirements
Registration and listing of manufacturers
Good tissue practice requirements
Procedures to prevent the spread of disease
Criteria for heart valves

My father received a new heart in 1998. Even though he was very, very ill, he had to go 6 months without smoking to get ON the list. Once he did, he was lucky to get a donor pretty quickly.

He lived 10 years with the new heart. A former basketball player, he called t “Life Overtime”.

For the life of me, I cannot believe anyone would keep a child off the list because of a COVID vaccine. That is insane.

All this crap would end pretty much over night if we brought back public executions for this crap.

They're really stretching to make that connection, eh? Still, this is medical tyranny at it's worst.

Thanks for sharing. My husband is a heart transplant recipient. He is fifteen years out of transplant, is in great shape and we are so blessed, as you have been and understand. There is quite a bit of misinformation regarding transplant criteria. People hear horror stories about those who died waiting years for a heart or other organ, which is sad. But it is a rigorous process designed to prevent a rare, precious heart/organ from going to a recipient who has an underlying, potentially life threatening disease or condition that would prevent the transplant from being successful. HOWEVER, this particular story does not ring true regarding the COVID vax. My husband goes in for routine exams every six months, and not once has he ever been told or instructed that he must have up to date COVID vaccines. I am betting this young girl has something else preventing her from the “list”.

No one has stated that the donor heart may have mRNA in it. Isn’t that the same thing as a ‘vaccination’ from the body’s perspective?

Agree. Surely, there is another reason.

My Dad was 64 when he got the transplant ( on Valentines Day… seriously!)
He wasn’t in the greatest of health at the time He had congestive heart disease, so he hasn’t been able to exercise. He was also a pretty big man, 6’ 4”. Because he was so ill, his doctor told us it was likely he would die before a heart was available. We were prepared for the worst.

It was quite a shock when they called, after about 6 weeks on the list. We all rushed to Houston, where the surgery was done. It only took about 3.5 hours. Dad made a full, quick recovery. 8 of his next 10 years were a Godsend.

Sadly, his smoking and lifetime of work in a chemical plant caught up with him. He developed lung cancer that spread. But nevertheless, we greatly enjoyed the extra time with him. He never had any issues with the heart.

Best of luck to you and your husband.

My husband was exactly 64 years old also, on the transplant list fifteen days. Your dad still lived to 74 years and that is good. Many people with great hearts don’t live to 74, it doesn’t make the loss easier but gives some perspective. Bless you .

The Covid jab has never been proven safe and effective, it has been proven unsafe, ineffective and outright harmful.
I wish this little girl all the best but if this can stir up a firestorm that will get rid of mandatory vaccinations once and for all, so be it.

I wonder if the heart donor was vaxxed.
