Baby whose parents wanted 'unvaccinated' blood has heart surgery in New Zealand after doctors sought temporary guardianship
SKY News ^ | December 9, 2022

A baby in New Zealand whose parents wanted only "unvaccinated" blood used in operations has had urgent heart surgery after a court took guardianship of the child.

Sue Grey, the anti-vaccination lawyer acting for the parents, told Radio New Zealand the surgery went ahead on Friday and the boy was doing well.

The baby has a congenital heart defect and needed life-saving surgery, which his parents were not willing to go ahead with if blood transfusions were used from people who been vaccinated for COVID-19.

New Zealand's health authority, Te Whatu Ora, went to court seeking temporary guardianship of the boy in order to authorise the use of vaccinated blood during the operation.

A judge at the High Court in Auckland placed the baby under temporary guardianship of the court earlier this week and ruled that doctors could make the medical decisions for the baby.

An additional court ruling, made the night before the surgery, ordered the parents not to prevent medical staff from carrying out their work after they stopped doctors from taking blood tests, performing a chest X-ray and an anaesthetic assessment, Radio New Zealand reported.

The boy's parents told the court they had other willing donors lined up who had not been vaccinated against COVID-19.

However, the boy was likely to need plasma products which are formed from pooling blood from various donors. Doctors argued it was "simply impractical" to get this from directed donors, news website Stuff reported.

In other words, the doctors convenience outweighed the parents’ rights.

Define “ simply impractical” when it is your child…

No, the rights of the child to necessary medical care outweighted the parents rights to insist upon unnecessary precations.

No thanks. These are the same “scientists” that are saying it’s ok for a man to say he’s a woman.

So glad to see Douchebag Duke piping up for Vaxholes. What the parents asked was not impossible, just what they felt was in the best interest of THEIR CHILD. Parents have ultimate responsibility for safety and well-being of THEIR CHILD. Doctors are not Gods and they need need to stop acting like ones.

Define unnecessary IN YOUR OPINION to YOUR standards. What the court did was wrong. Damn lucky that wasn’t my child.

So, what is the harm? The parents had donors lined up. And plasma can be donated twice a week. You can take the plasma directly from the parents and other donors in a few minutes. There is no medical reason to have to mix the plasma with other donors’ plasma.

I sincerely hope that there are some deaths over this. I don’t mean the baby or his parents.

Infants DO NOT NEED the vax!

The vax DOES NOT WORK!

The vax IS DANGEROUS!

There is no legal or scientific basis for the court's threats and imposition.

Necessary doesn’t include such nonsense requirements about using only unvaccinated blood.

There seems to be a growing interest in wanting UNVAXXed blood for surgeries.

Wonder why?

A good friend of mine had Hep C for YEARS from contaminated blood she got when in surgery.

I expect the phsicians are far more knowledgeable than someone who believes in the ‘pure blood’ crackpot theory.
No more justifiable than those who used to refuse blood from minorities.

No one here has bagged with oxygen a blue baby with a congenital heart defect like I have. When the physicians state they will need pooled plasma, its time for the parents to accept medical intervention.

We have a very vocal subset of posters who have been convinced by a few quacks that they know far better how to treat medical conditions than health care professionals. These posters are fully convinced that almost all health care professionals have been coerced into participating in a conspiracy to kill billions of people world wide.
