Child’s Life Destroyed by Fluvax, Millions in Damages Paid Out to Parents
June 9th, 2014Holy crap.
Via: PerthNow:
THE parents of a WA girl who has been awarded millions in damages after a defective flu jab left her severely disabled say they it’s a “massive relief” the legal battle is over.
Mick and Kirsten Button’s daughter Saba was just 11 months old when she received the Fluvax shot in April 2010.
The then toddler suffered a hypoxic brain injury, kidney, liver and bone marrow failure. She can now no longer walk and talk and needs round-the-clock care.
Three days after Saba was admitted at Princess Margaret Hospital, Fluvax was recalled. It is now banned for children under five.
It’s a sad story but I’m happy to hear they won the case. Although perthnow could use a proofreader. Little painful getting through with the amount of typos.
