An Alberta woman who was refused a life-saving organ transplant because of her vaccine status has reached a settlement with Alberta Health Services, as well as the hospital and doctors involved. The settlement stems from a lawsuit she filed, claiming negligence.
“The parties have recently reached a satisfactory settlement in this matter, and all funds raised through your generous donations will be going towards Shelia’s healthcare needs moving forward,” said a statement posted July 18 to the GiveSendGo page for Sheila Annette Lewis. The page was started in June to raise money so Ms. Lewis could get treatment in the United States.
