Camilla Canepa, the 18-year-old girl who died of a thrombosis a few days after receiving the first dose of AstraZeneca anti-Covid vaccine, would not have indicated his pathologies on the card for the vaccinator, the one in which you must declare your state of health and write down your diseases and the medicines you are taking. To reveal it today is the Corriere della Sera. The student, according to what emerged yesterday, suffered from familial autoimmune thrombocytopenia (a disease that has the effect of lowering platelets) and was taking double hormone therapy. Investigators are working to understand precisely if the two diseases had been reported in the card delivered before the administration of the Coronavirus vaccine, on May 25, when the girl queued up with many peers to participate in an open day. organized for over 18s.
According to the newspaper, in fact, the thrombocytopenia in Camilla’s anamnestic file, recovered by the Nas carabinieri, is not indicated. According to the first reconstructions, among other things, there would also be another event that could have played a role in the chain of interactions that led to the death of the girl. Camilla on May 29 had started a therapy with two other drugs – one based on hormones, Progynova, and one based on estrogen, Dufaston – which, according to a health source close to the story, would involve a thrombotic risk. The investigation of the Public Prosecutor of Genoa will have to understand what was the causal link in this sequence of interactions: the pathologies, the viral vector vaccine, the drugs.
Camilla felt ill a couple of days after starting to take those drugs: on June 3 she went to the emergency room, in Lavagna, where after a night under observation they discharged her. But then it gets worse again and on the evening of June 5 she goes back to the hospital in Genoa, where she will undergo two delicate surgeries to remove the thrombus and then to reduce intracranial pressure. After the drama, the parents agreed to donate organs. “An admirable gesture, a great gesture of love”, the words of the general director of San Marino. Yesterday the government, a few hours after Camilla’s tragedy, decided to stop the use of the AstraZeneca vaccine on young people after the opinion of the CTS.
