Vance’s Young Fam Member DENIED Heart Transplant Over Being Unvaxxed

According to reports, a young family member of Vice President JD Vance was denied a life-saving heart transplant due to the fact that she is not vaccinated against Covid-19.

Adaline Deal, an Indiana resident, was omitted from the heart transparent list. Her parents explained that doctors cited her lack of vaccination against the flu and covid-19, deeming her ineligible for a transplant.

The 12-year-old’s mother, Janeen Deal, said, “I thought, wow. So, it’s not about the kid. It’s not about saving her life.” She explained that they do not believe in vaccines because “the Holy Spirit put it on our hearts.”

Adaline, who moved from China to the U.S. when she was 4 years old, had been undergoing treatment for two rare heart conditions at the Cincinnati Children’s Hospital. When her parents explained that no one in the family receives vaccines because it goes against their deeply held religious beliefs, doctors did not make an exception, they told the Cincinnati Inquirer.

The transplant industry requires stringent vaccines from organ recipients due to an increased risk of infection. For patients like Adaline, who suffers from Ebstein’s anomaly and Wolff-Parkinson-White Syndrome, there is a higher risk of death from contracting Covid according to Dr. Camille Kotton, the clinical director of transplant and immunocompromised host infectious diseases at Massachusetts General Hospital.

“The first year after transplant is when they’re at highest risk for infection, but they do have a lifelong risk of severe disease and transplant patients are still dying because of COVID-19,” Kotton told the outlet.

Janeen, however, said she and her family are confident that Adaline will not be mortally wounded from a Covid infection following a heart transplant.

“We’ll take it as we can if it happens,” Janeen added. “But I know I cannot put this (vaccine) in her body knowing what we know and how we feel about it.”

According to a hospital spokesperson, leaving Adaline off the transplant list was “guided by science research and best practices” by the National Institutes of Health.

“We tailor care plans to each patient in collaboration with their family to ensure the safest, most effective treatment,” said spokesman Bo McMillan.
