Chinese vaccines: the parental drama with children who develop leukemia

After receiving her first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine , Li Jun's 4-year-old developed a fever and cough, which rapidly subsided after intravenous therapy in the hospital. When the effect recurred after the recall, the father began to get suspicious.
The swelling appeared around her daughter's eyes and did not go away. For weeks, the girl complained of pains in her legs, where bruises began to seemingly emerge out of nowhere. After a few weeks the terrible diagnosis: acute lymphoblastic leukemia. The baby was perfectly healthy before. This is just one of hundreds of Chinese cases of leukemia found on specialized social media groups talking about post-vaccination leukemia with Chinese vaccines. The cases span different age groups from all parts of China, but many parents have particularly pointed to an increase in patients in the younger age group in recent months, coinciding with the regime's push to vaccinate children between the ages of 3 and 11 years since last October.

Li's daughter got her first injection in mid-November at the request of her asylum. She is now undergoing chemotherapy at Lanzhou No. 2 People's Hospital, where at least 20 children are being treated for similar symptoms, most of them between the ages of 3 and 8: " Our hospital doctor told us that children who come to the hematology department to treat leukemia have doubled since November compared to previous years and have a shortage of beds , ”he said.

About 84.4 million children between the ages of 3 and 11 had been vaccinated as of November 13, according to the latest figures from the Chinese National Health Commission, representing more than half of the population in that age group. There was some resistance from Chinese parents when the campaign to vaccinate children was first launched. They expressed concern about the lack of data on the effects of Chinese vaccines on young people. The vaccines are provided by two Chinese drug manufacturers, Sinopharm and Sinovac, which have an efficacy rate of 79% and 50.4%, respectively, based on available data from adult studies.

There is limited information on the health effects of these vaccines on children, and the World Health Organization said in late November that it did not approve the two vaccines for emergency use in minors, but parents have come under severe pressure to children conformed. "The school told us last year to take him for vaccination on that date, otherwise he can't go to class," said another parent.

500 people met on Wechat i who had the same problem, but then the censors closed and the news was deleted as it was published. Not only that, when it was decided to launch a petition to be sent, legitimately, to the organs of the Communist Party, the subscribers were called one by one by the police and convinced, so to speak, that it was better to dissolve the group and withdraw the signatures. . A sign, for the subscribers, that the authorities are well aware of the problem, but that, precisely for this reason, they are trying to repress the news, and even turning to TV has not had any effect

For many families, the tragedy of the disease is compounded by the cost of treatment, even 20 times the average annual income of a Chinese citizen. Against a cost of 500 thousand Yuan, they receive a few thousand aid from the governments. Families are often desperate because if one can accept a child's illness, one cannot accept having been co-responsible for it by accepting the vaccination. The cases concern the Sinopharm and Sinovac vaccines not distributed in Europe, if not in a few cases, and not for pediatric use.
