Syrian jabs prove deadly for 15 kids in rebel areas
AT least 15 children died after receiving vaccinations in rebel-held parts of Syria.
The children, some just babies, all exhibited signs of “severe allergic shock” about an hour after they were given a second round of measles vaccinations in the northwestern province of Idlib on Tuesday, with many suffocating to death as their bodies swelled, said physician Abdullah Ajaj, who administered the vaccinations in the town of Jarjanaz.
It was unclear what killed the children, but Ajaj said that they all exhibited the same symptoms to varying degrees. He said it was the first time he had ever seen such symptoms after vaccinations. “There was shouting and screaming, it was hard for the parents. You get your child vaccinated and then you find your child dying, it’s very hard,” Ajaj said.
There weren’t enough respirators in the clinic, making the situation worse, he added.
The Western-backed opposition based in Turkey said it had suspended the second round of measles vaccinations, which began on Monday.
