Life-Saving Organ Transplants Denied to Unvaccinated People

doctor rejecting patient

The idea that a person in need of a life-saving surgery would be denied that procedure by a doctor or a hospital administrator simply because the individual opted out of getting a COVID-19 shot seems surreal. It sounds unethical at the very least, criminal at worst, and certainly not something that one would imagine could happen in America. Yet, hard as it is to believe, this medieval-sounding scenario distinguished by callous disregard for human life has been played out on numerous occasions in the United States during the past two years.1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11

In one highly publicized case, Leilani Lutali of Colorado Springs was denied a kidney transplant by University of Colorado Hospital in Aurora until she and her donor agreed to be injected with COVID shots. In North Carolina, Chad Carswell of Burke County was also denied a kidney transplant by Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist Hospital in Winston-Salem until both he and his donor agreed to get COVID shots.1 2 3 5 6 7 8 9 10

In Ohio, unvaccinated Michelle Vitullo was denied a liver transplant by the Cleveland Clinic. In Washington, unvaccinated Derek Kovick was also denied a liver transplant by the University of Washington Medical Center in Seattle. In Massachusetts, unvaccinated DJ Ferguson was denied a heart transplant by Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston.4 7 9 11

In a more recent case, 14-year-old unvaccinated Yulia Hicks was denied a kidney transplant by Duke University Hospital in Durham, North Carolina. The young girl, who is originally from Ukraine, suffers from a rare degenerative kidney condition known as Senior Loken Syndrome.12 13

Yulia’s mother reportedly asked a hospital employee, “So basically you’re telling us if she does not get the vaccine, then she’s not getting a transplant?” and the employee responded, “Yes, that is the one thing that is holding us up.”12 13 Mrs. Hicks said:

They said the CDC recommendation had been updated at the end of October, and they had to go by the recommendation, and if she didn’t get the vaccine she wouldn’t be getting a transplant at Duke.12

Yulia’s father added:

We’ve been up front the entire time we’ve been seen at Duke, for the last two years, that we were not comfortable with the vaccine, with the COVID-19 vaccine. And so they knew all along that we were not comfortable with this. And it wasn’t a requirement. It was… a recommendation, according to [the doctors] at first, until the very end.13

The father said that his daughter underwent a “nine-hour [medical] workup” in October and that that was when the doctors and hospital officials “decided or told us that this was going to be a highly recommended-slash-requirement for her to get a vaccine before she would get the transplant.”13

“There’s no sympathy whatsoever from any of them,” said Yulia’s mother. “It’s just strong arming us: give her the vaccine, and you’ll get the transplant.”12

Some Organ Transplant Candidates Refuse COVID Shots Afraid of Life-Threatening Adverse Reactions

One of the concerns about the COVID vaccines (notably the mRNA shots) expressed by transplant candidates has to do with the risk of developing life-threatening inflammatory heart conditions known as myocarditis and pericarditis.14

The ethics of denying organ transplant candidates life-saving transplant surgery because they do not want to take the risk with potentially life-threatening medical interventions, such as vaccination, is the subject of heated debates. Which side you come down on may depend on your view of the effectiveness and safety of the vaccine being required as a condition of getting an organ transplant.

Yet, it is hard not to see at least some degree of cruelty and grim irony in condemning someone to death simply because they do not wish to be injected with a biological product like the COVID shot, which is known to cause severe adverse reactions, including fatal ones. It places people in desperate need between a rock and a hard place. It just seems wrong.

Some Surgeries Rejected for Fear of Transfusions With Blood ‘Tainted’ by Vaccination

Interestingly, while there are some unvaccinated (for COVID) people in need of an organ transplant who are being rejected for the surgery, there are also some unvaccinated people needing surgery who may be reluctant to have the operation for fear of receiving a blood transfusion that could contain blood donated by people who have gotten COVID mRNA shots.15 16

“The problem is right now we have no choice,” said Swiss naturopath George Della Pietra, founder of the nonprofit SafeBlood Donation, which matches unvaccinated blood recipients with donors in countries around the world. “I get hundreds of emails asking me, ‘Do you have blood [available], because I have surgery coming up in three weeks,’” Della Pietra said.15

According to an article in the Independent Sentinel, Della Pietra and other unvaccinated people believe that the COVID mRNA shots “contaminate” the blood and cause the “eventual destruction of the immune system.” In short, they believe that blood may be harmful if received from vaccinated people.15

A good example of this occurred recently in New Zealand when parents of a four-month-old boy refused an operation requiring a blood transfusion for their baby using blood from the New Zealand Blood Service (NZBS) because the blood supply would include blood from donors who had received COVID shots.16 An article published by The Vaccine Reaction last week noted:

The parents expressed grave concerns about using blood from donors who had received the COVID shots and said they had more than 20 unvaccinated people who agreed to donate blood to their son for the operation. However, the hospital where the operation would be performed insisted on using donor blood provided by NZBS, which does not separate blood taken from vaccinated and unvaccinated donors.16

“We don’t want blood that is tainted by vaccination. That’s the end of the deal,” said the child’s father. “We are fine with anything else these doctors want to do.”16

While donated blood and plasma must go through a cleansing process before all transfusions, SafeBlood Donation does not believe that the process removes all mRNA ingredients. “I’m talking about graphene oxide and nondeclared inorganic components in the vaccine, which we can see in the blood,” Della Pietra said. “When I see them, I have no idea how we can get rid of them again.”16

Della Pietra thinks that unvaccinated people are getting vaccinated “more or less through the back door… You cannot avoid it anymore.”16

  1. When hospitals or physicians continue denying organ transplants to unvaccinated people, they have failed to abide the principles of medical ethics. Autonomy is one of the principles of medical ethics. Therefore they literally are practicing bad medicine. Physicians or hospitals should be ashamed of themselves for denying unvaccinated people who need urgent help. ?

  2. Peace
    You are so right. Not to mention that they are practicing “Apartheid” by classifying we unvaxxed as second class citizens, not worthy of medical care.

  3. This is wrong to do us all like this, like so much else these scammers do using the power of suggestion on us all to brainwash, dumb down, divide and scam us with. If people don’t know yet, America was taken over in 1913 by a private banking cartel that goes by a fake name to this day – the “Federal” Reserve, which is the same fake money banker scammers that our Founders were running from in England. Almost everything in the news since then has been lies (psyops) by these scammers and their enabled psyop scammers all over the place. The US, BBC, and other legacy military industrial complex, big pharma, TV, movies, the US Congress, Senate, Executive branch, public education, etc. was taken over then too. People need to grow up and stop pretending that they don’t see these more obvious psyop scams on us all like the 9/11 scam, the weaponized anthrax/vaccine scam starting seven days after 9/11, the JFK, RFK, MLK scams, the AIPAC scam, and even all these man-made religions which are scams too. Most people already know, whether they want to admit it or not, that Nature is all our God and mankind just doesn’t know everything, in a nutshell. I’m for a ‘new world order’, sure, but not for scamming and killing people, while they show us bs like the Energizer bunny rabbit going across our TV screens, Comedy Court TV, “reality” shows, soap operas, lots of really dumb cartoons, people like Bill Gates on TV casually saying how much money he’s making, Donald Trump acting like he fighting all this crime and psyops in this Democracy scam with worthless electronic voting machines today even, when we are supposed to have a Republic anyway, not a Democracy scam, which is basically the elite scamming the rest of the country. Joe Biden had to drop out of the 1988 presidential race for lying and plagiarism for crying out loud. I have him on video playing dumb as our Vice President when someone handed him a peer-reviewed scientific paper of the explosive destruction of the Twin Towers, which tells anyone with any sense they were blown up with some kind of explosives (if you didn’t already notice that) after some planes were remote controlled into them that day, which Captain Dan Hanley from the US Navy and many other pilots have been pointing out for years that you just can’t jump in a big plane like that and fly it around if you’re not trained to do so. These scammers have controlled opposition all over the place too that tell some truth while they pretend to be for this, or pretend to be for that, then you have to stop promoting them as soon as you see they promote bs lies. What these psyop scammers do is use the more suggestible among us against the rest of us. Please see and share my substack blog and help me correct any of it if you can.

    Thank you,

  4. I denied access to my pureblood and organs when the medical sector decided that certain risk laden injectables became compulsory for certain activities. My perfect organs will be destroyed when I die.

    I’d happily restart giving my blood *only to Safeblood* for people who appreciate what I have achieved. The same principle applies for my organs. I have invested my time/effort/resources to ensure perfect health. I’m not interested in giving these away for free to organisations who follow the ‘second rate’ directions of the FDA. Safe blood is ‘best practice’. FDA is not. That’s where I draw the line.

    The blood banks have the processes in place for rare blood and self donated blood. These services can now be extended to include another category of *rare blood* to be consistent with consumer demand… pure safe blood.

    When this occurs I’ll alter my “Last Will And Testament” to reflect this. And not before.

    Thank you George Della Petra for coming out of retirement to bring awareness and integrity to this matter. I honour your intellect and admire your fortitude. God bless you.

    1. Agreed 10000%! I’m getting tired of their attitude towards unvaccinated people. They deserve social interactions. And they’re human, period.

  5. So this is how CDC claims that unvaccinated people are more likely to die.
    The CDC study is baced from hospitals that mis treat no? people ?.
