Boston: patient risks heart transplant by refusing COVID vaccine

In Boston, the public health experts are showing their passionate expression of grief and sorrow on the individuals who have been losing their lives because of opposition to the Covid-19 vaccine.

Moreover, a resident from Massachusetts named David B. Ferguson Jr. which is also known as DJ.

Currently, DJ is suffering from severe end-stage heart failure, and is constantly waiting for a heart transplant in Brigham, Boston and a women’s hospital after facing difficulties from a genetic heart condition.

The man is in the situation of the danger of loss, harm, and failure as he has refused to get vaccinated and getting vaccinated is necessary for the transplant.

The GoFundMe is a page that is made for fulfilling his medical requirements.

According to hospital guidelines, it is compulsory for all the patients who require a transplant to be fully vaccinated against the Noval Coronavirus. It will help enhance one of the severe conditions from which they are going through, and it will also lead to survival.

However, Ferguson is a father of two children and also expecting his third child. He doesn’t want to be vaccinated against COVID as he “doesn’t believe in the need to get vaccinated.”

A strategy to make the immunity strong of the people the International Society for Heart and Lung Transplantation, the American Society of Transplantation and the American Society of Transplant Surgeons supported a policy, in the majority of the Transplant centres in different states, the person must get vaccinated against the COVID variants.

As per the statement made by the Brigham and Women’s Hospital, there is a long list of patients, which is more than 100,000 worldwide, that are waiting for the organ transplant, but as there are not many organ doners (shortage of organs) available, so most of them are waiting since five years. Meanwhile, some of them have died while waiting from such a long time.
