We just about had a family fallout. I thought they were all nuts, I honestly did.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>On October 11, 2021 Ms Horton asked her GP for his advice on the Covid vaccine.<\/p>\n<p>He told her she was at a higher risk from contracting Covid due to her underlying multiple sclerosis, which has been held in check by six-monthly infusions of an autoimmune medication since being diagnosed in 2014.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;I have never had a problem with any other vaccine,&#8217; Mr Horton said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;As nurses you have to have all these sorts of jabs.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Based on her doctor&#8217;s advice, Ms. Horton received a Pfizer vaccine at a local medical practice in southwest Perth.<\/p>\n<p>For the next two days, Ms Horton said she felt\u00a0&#8216;pretty rubbish&#8217; and was fatigued.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<p>However, she put it down to having a young daughter who was a magnet for bringing viruses into the household.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Ms Horton had her second Pfizer jab on November 12.<\/p>\n<p>The following weekend, Ms Horton was hosting a joint birthday party for herself and her daughter, when she burnt her tongue on some asparagus.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;[The burn] turned into a massive ulcer on my tongue,&#8217; she said.<\/p>\n<p>She woke the following morning with a bad headache, sore throat and nausea, forcing her to stay in bed.<\/p>\n<p>The next day she began vomiting, shaking from fevers and suffering a &#8216;pounding headache&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p>On November 17 a family friend took Ms Horton to emergency at Perth&#8217;s\u00a0Peel Health Campus while her husband looked after their one-year-old baby.<\/p>\n<p>Eventually a doctor told Ms Horton she was neutropenic, which means she was severely down on the white blood cells that fight infections.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;It dawned on me just how sick I was and how dangerous it may have been for me to be left in an open ward with such a compromised immune system,&#8217; Ms Horton said.<\/p>\n<p>After receiving antibiotics overnight, Ms. Horton&#8217;s white blood cell count improved significantly, approaching normal levels, but her neutrophil levels remained low.<\/p>\n<p>A doctor wanted to send Ms Horton home but she told him she still felt &#8216;dreadful&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Then I told him that I had a sore stomach and when he touched it I nearly went through the roof,&#8217; she said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;He ordered an ultrasound and it revealed acute cholecystitis (inflammation of the gall bladder).&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>This led to a further four nights in hospital, where Ms Horton was given antibiotics and pain relief.<\/p>\n<p>She was finally discharged, and her discharge summary stated she had suffered a\u00a0\u00a0&#8216;post-vaccination immune reaction.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Ms Horton was told she would still need a third Covid vaccine to work as a nurse again due to the state&#8217;s strict vaccine mandates at the time.<\/p>\n<p>She applied for an exemption from that requirement, providing a letter from a neurology professor that stated she had &#8216;a\u00a0documented adverse reaction to both her first and second Pfizer coronavirus (vaccines) &#8230; leading to a 6-day hospital admission with potentially life-threatening neutropina&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;It is medically recognised that neutropenia can be a complication of the Pfizer vaccination &#8230; there is a significant risk of neutropenia should a further coronavirus\u00a0 (vaccine) be given,&#8217; the letter stated.<\/p>\n<p>However she was not provided with an exemption, and was forced out of her job.<\/p>\n<p>Ms Horton\u00a0said while conditions such as myocarditis and pericarditis were well documented as adverse effects from the Covid vaccine, other rarer reactions like hers are &#8216;probably going unrecognised&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;There needs to be a full inquiry into the vaccines and acknowledgment of all the people who have suffered over the past three years,&#8217; Ms Horton said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Thankfully mine has resolved but many are suffering devastating consequences.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Peel Campus hospital has been contacted for comment but has not confirmed whether they reported Ms Horton as an adverse vaccine reaction to medical watchdog the Therapeutic Goods Administration.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/news\/article-13892479\/nurse-perth-covid-vaccine-jab.html\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nurse Haylee Horton tells how she learned the hard way that the &#8216;conspiracy theories&#8217;
