"Dear Salvini, my daughter died because she had not been vaccinated"

" Ten compulsory vaccines are useless, in several dangerous or even harmful cases". These words, uttered by Matteo Salvini at Radio Studio 54, have elicited indignant reactions, not just from the scientific community.

Antonella Salimbene, a mother of Casalmaiocco, Lodi province, in 2014 lost her daughter Azzurra (photographed), who was 11 years old and died of the only illness for which she was born. Had not been vaccinated. He wrote to VanityFair.it the letter he wanted to send to the minister.

"I call Antonella Salimbene and I am the mother of three beautiful children. Or rather, two children and an angel, called Azzurra, who misses me more and more every day.

Now, I do not want to go to Minister Salvini, but to Father Salvini's. On March 20, March 20 left because of fulminant meningitis C because she had not been vaccinated. I decided not to vaccinate her not because I was against vaccines. Absolutely. But because that should guide me to the right choice, based on scientific data, he felt that this vaccine was useless.

Just as I heard from you. Between us, maybe it would not have been so useless, is not it? No vaccine is useless and dangerous. The real damage is to lower the guard against the diseases that come back to reap the victims. My daughter is gone, and I am guilty of it.

But she could also have been vaccinated and belonged to the category of non-responders . He could have been an immunocompromised child every day at risk because in contact with unvaccinated children and possibly hypothetical carriers, not by their choice, but by decision of their parents, which cause irreparable damage to vaccines, side effects Lethal

You know, my little Blue was violently attacked by this terrible beast called Meningococcus c on March 19th, Father's Day. He had been singing on the phone to his father, a little song with his sister. From that moment, only two hours pbaded

You are a father: try to put yourself in the place of my husband who, two hours after hearing his daughter sing for him, receives my call desperate:, Azzurra is ill, is in intensive care . "The time to arrive and the response of the cerebrospinal fluid test that my daughter contracted meningitis and probably will not do it. [19659002] I remember my princess, in all her beauty, lying on this bed, the sons who kept her alive, the beep sound continued from her heart that gave way, our despair. March 20 arrives: I remember the cold room our hands caressing his skin, the tears coming down from his eyes.

I wonder what they wanted to tell me These tears Perhaps they would have asked me: " Mother, why t does this happen? ", Or maybe:" Bye, mom, I'll miss you. " I will never know. But still today a voice is ringing in my brain, the doctor's voice announcing that they would remove the machinery that kept Azzurra alive, because this bading bacterium had burned his brain.

Azzurra is now gone, but I pray every day that there are more victims of wrong choice victims of misinformation. When we are young, our parents tell us that the promises must be kept and she, Salvini, tries to keep what she announced during the election campaign. But they also teach us that our freedom should not harm those around us. The first right of children is to live, and our choices often make us forget.
