This is concerning at the baseline level. This becomes even more concerning when you overlay that both the kidney donor and the transplant patient are unvaccinated and aligned without issue. The hospital is refusing the transplant surgery based solely on their vaccinated status.
DENVER (KDVR) — A patient on the kidney transplant list was moved to inactive status by UCHealth for not receiving a COVID-19 vaccine. Her living donor is also unvaccinated and UCHealth said both need to be vaccinated for the transplant process to continue.

The letter Leilani Lutali received states: “The transplant team at University of Colorado Hospital has determined that it is necessary to place you inactive on the waiting list. You will be inactivated on the list for non-compliance by not receiving the COVID vaccine. You will have 30 days to begin the vaccination series. If your decision is to refuse COVID vaccination you will be removed from the kidney transplant list. You will continue to accrue waiting time, but you will not receive a kidney offer while listed inactive. Once you complete the COVID vaccination series you will be reactivated on the kidney transplant list pending any other changes in your health condition.”
Lutali said she has religious concerns with the vaccines, as well as concerns that the vaccine would not be effective after receiving immunosuppressant drugs post-surgery.
“Both from a religious standpoint, and from doing some reading, I’m not certain that this is the right way to go,” she said. “The shot’s relatively new, and as a consumer, I’m not an early adopter, I wait and see what’s going on. I feel like I’m being coerced into not being able to wait and see, and that I have to take the shot if I want this life-saving transplant.”
Lutali’s potential donor, Jaimee Fougner, said she was also told she would not be eligible for the surgery since she is unvaccinated as well.
“When I explained that no, I wouldn’t be able to take the COVID shot, then the comment was, well your journey ends here, because we require all of our donors and recipients to have the COVID-19 vaccine,” Fougner said. (read more)

Wow! Activity killing people.
Absolutely, which is one of the goals of The Plannedemic.
Nearly all transplant centers are this way since covid. Cancers tend to show up in less than 5 months in vaxxed patients. At this point she will die either way.
They gave been all along .. it’s now obvious
They would rather see her die…
Killing people is right!!! have waited 2 years for surgery to remove a non-functioning kidney. while it’s not completely dead – it’s still producing a hormone that causes uncontrollable blood pressure – typical for me is 240/110, potential stroke level – 1st years denied due to postponement of all elective surgeries. now into 2nd year being denied due to unvaxxed. remaining kidney functions at 27%. nephrologiest does NOT advice vaccine as with any medicine that passes through kidneys. therefore am very limited on what meds can take in attempt to control blood pressure. wearing a mask for extensive period of time – lowering oxygen level – also risks stroke/heart attack. because of that no doctor will even see me at this point.
calling, complaining, arguing is useless. the gestopo at my primary care office is brutal & just doesn’t care. there is NO accommodations allowed. all the years of political fighting for the “pre-existing conditions” to be covered under insurance, covid – which is nothing more than the flu – it’s one size fits all.
so i continue to live every day with the risk of stroke/heart attack.
Only God knows my expiration date. Every day live the BEST you can be!
Wow, hope they can either eventually use common sense as far as your own risk assessment or that you would be able to travel to another location where they will permit things to be done
Who is your Congressman? Have you tried any conservative media figures?
Yes, willing to cause a person harm and possible death for a virus that 99.8% of the people on average recover from.
I hope she can sue the crap out of this hospital.
I read earlier this morning that they are looking for a different facility (most likely in a different, non woke state) to do the procedure. I hope they find one willing to do it and that it works out for both of them.
I hope they find one willing to do it and that it works out for both of them.
I hope so too and they turn their convalescence there into permanent residency. God be with them.
The medical industrial complex, if they continue upon this path, will find consequences coming their way never before envisioned in a civilized society. It is what it is.
I hope so because they are so arrogant w/the power.
I’m wondering if any facility that performs the procedure for her will face threats of losing any federal funding they receive?
Run to Florida! “Hello Gov. DeSantis…”
Fortunately, there are other, closer States they can go to.
I wouldn’t be surprised if there are many other hosp. in CO. that would help these patients, too.
They can’t ALL be this corrupt. And if they are, that would be a good reason for the whole pop. of CO. to just move out of that State and head for greener pastures.
Unfortunately, it’s not just about hospitals and their locations. It’s about the qualifications of the surgeons who would be doing their transplant surgeries. There aren’t many of them; it’s a very highly technical and delicate procedure, and even requires different specialized surgeons and OR staff for different transplants.
This incident is a serious development. This rejection comes from administration, most likely, not from the surgeons and staff themselves. They may not even know about this! And most doctors, sadly, are grossly misinformed about vaccines.
These women are in a very bad place with regard to their medical condition.
Healthcare workers are heroes.
The workers are….some doctors and organizations not so much.
The unvaxed ones are.
Just depends.
VaxxNazis abound.
I have some stories.
That is all.
LOL. You’re funny. I’ll tell you from experience that healthcare workers happen to be some of the worst tippers. Lots of swelled heads walking around hospitals and clinics like they’re gods.
In particular, many of the the MD’s have that God complex.
Many of the staff are well-intentioned, others are just doing a job. Just like in many professions.
The hospital CEO’s on the other hand are typically bottom-line oriented and just look at patients as numbers. About zero empathy from that lot.
Ludicrous
Unfortunately that is not true, most have drank the Kool-Aid. The ones that are good are as difficult to find as good FBI agents, Unicorns and Big Foot.
Any doctor who got injected with an experimental vaccine whose long term effects are unknown and cannot be known is reckless with his own health and cannot be trusted with mine.
You forgot the /s tag. But then again, your statement is an obvious joke.
OT, but close enough.
My bout with COVID is over.
I am male, 61, 20# overweight.
On Thursday, fever chills.
Friday, my Daughters test came in Positive.
I immediately went to the feed store and purchased a $7.00 tube of Ivermectin.
Graduated in 50# increments for .2 MG per KG, that was exactly enough for the recommended 5 day treatment for me.
Taken after a meal.
I was sick on Friday, so stayed home until Sunday.
Monday, 1/2 day.
Yesterday, felt weak, but took some dayquil and managed a full day.
Today, I am just a bit tired, but I am over it.
So, the Ivermectin, Quercitin, Zinc, Vitamins’ A&D and it’s over.
It really works.
A bit older, had it three times since early 2020, no treatment at all. Still vertical. Russians are hard to kill, heh. Best wishes for a full recovery and continued good health.
3 cheers for horse paste! LOL
Yes! There’s an awful lot to be said about “horse sense,” after all!!! LOL!!!
They need to transfer to another state for the procedure. This is unbelievable. One of the possible side effects of the jabs is – kidney problems!
The Eu just started a new investigation into just that specific side effect. Don’t get operated on in a hospital full of morons.
https://khn.org/morning-breakout/rare-skin-kidney-side-effects-of-mrna-vaccines-probed-by-eu/
Well, the vile drug, Remdisivir causes kidney failure.
This person was just given a death sentence.
But any drug addict can get a new kidney with no problem
Exactly.
I worked with a guy who was both a chain-smoker and an alcoholic.
He received a heart transplant.
I bet those with hepatitis or HIV are not denied, and those actually pose risks to both patient and staff.
From a video posted on CTH two days ago, some people with the jabs end up with blood similar to that of a person with AIDS.
No, they must be clean for 6 mos. then they can get a transplant.
Not your body, not your choice. Cannot participate in society or even receive medical care now unless you get that dangerous sh** injected into you? I’m beyond disgusted. FJB.
Then they need to both get the surgery done in another state. These people….NO words!!
Absolutely ridiculous. We’ll be seeing an alternate medical community develop.
Hopefully soon.
The admins and doctors should be doxxed. Call them out. Make them famous. If they are in public someone ask them how they justify the inhumanity. Politely of course.
Why be polite?
Don’t change your name. You are moderated automatically when you do.
Because there are numerous ways to do it, and more people will listen to the intended message?
Yep – parade up and down in front of their HOMES just like ANTIFA and BLM does to “whites” – except no violence.
Eventually, someone receiving a letter like this is going to have a problem with that last part.
they might……………
Exactly. Every day there are comments on these boards saying somebody needs to do something. Today is the day, somebody has to be each of us. Research just one person in the decision process. Anyone from the administrative personnel of the medical system to the organ transplant committee is in on this, out them all. Put them all under the microscope and expose every transgression or misstep no matter how small. Expose every aspect of their life, no matter how personal. Especially the personal.
These people are willing to push you into the shower and turn on the gas and still the “somebody has to do something” crowd is unwilling to take even the step of personally embarrassing these killers.
Operation Microscope. Expose them all, expose everything about them. And if they do not back down, expose every auto mechanic who fixes their car, the septic guy who pumps their tank, the butcher who sells them non-GMO free range chicken. Scorched earth until they change.
Hang out in front of the country club. Peacefully, of course. The kids private schools, tennis clubs, the tony mani/pedi/hair spots. All the places they spend the spoils of their largess at our expense and, in some cases, the cost of our lives. Good rabbits to smoke out their jackboots in the corrupt law enforcement community. Use it. The Communists do.
What would one expect from a medical facility so similarly named to “Auschwitz”?
Sweet Jesus, I hope they get another facility to do this. I also hope they can sue. I say that unsurely because these days I don’t know which side the judges are on. Praying for AZ Brnovich to start indicting people and Durham’s report & Sussman interrogations bring some quick and healing light to this. I try to see how I can help, but protesting doesn’t really seem like it does much. I even had an idea of getting people just to go stop the invasion in Texas. It’s a madhouse and I think there is a way out, I just don’t see the door right now.
Wow! That’s a major lawsuit. There is no authorized “vaccine” available at this time. The only available covid shot is the emergency use one. Beyond that, the facts do not support a pandemic nor an emergency use shot (other treatments are available and work). Even more is that there are supporting statistics that show the vaccinated are more susceptible to covid. And the most important one … that covid shot has major problems when given, up to and including death.
The dam is near bursting. Something has to give. And the way those in power are positioning themselves, they are definitely preparing for it.
Not sure I would want surgery conducted at this hospital anyway.
What would happen if while I was under anesthesia, I started chanting F Joe Biden?
Healthcare workers in a hospital like that would never inject you with the “vaccine” while you were under anesthesia because they are an ethical institution and have sworn to … “Do no harm.”
Really? Seems to me they’re doing plenty of “harm” by “just following CDC guidelines.”
I believe I’ll keep being highly skeptical of all the medical field, thank you!
Sarcasm level = pro
Love it. The sad part is there are good, moral, compassionate humans in the medical community who are either getting weeded out or have their head down and trying to make like a hole in the water to survive. It’s the evil among them ruling the roost now. They are the disease and we are the cure.
From what we’re seeing here, they don’t sound very ethical at all if they’re willing to let somebody die because they won’t take the nazi jab.
This place has some of the best comments on the webs!
I was thinking more along the lines of them slipping the vax into one of their IV bags. No chance I’d use them at this point anyway.
One thing is certain…the person is not an illegal alien….they would not dare deny
That’s perfect. The solution is – they need to “identify” as illegal aliens and then they won’t need the shots and the surgery will be performed for free. Problem solved.
The first thing I would do is get in touch with Philip Anschutz and see what he thinks about this.
Good Luck. Anschutz is a CO Republican Party Bazillionaire.

@Vladtepesblog
Australia , Canada , US….. in that order , with each new draconian push of the New World Order.
The hospital should be dealt with as tho they are actively committing genocide, its gonna take igilantyvayism to stop the madness.
Some equal protection under law,is more equal than others…
i have to wonder if the actual transplant team, surgeons, resident, interns, nurses & techs,
(which does NOT include katie hamann bsn, rn, transplant COORDINATOR, i.e. an administrative position)
are in “alignment” with this policy.
seems like a mighty dangerous limb to climb out on….
This “policy” is so bad that I would think some Med workers at this hosp. would just quit and go find work elsewhere.
If I lived in Denver, I wouldn’t use this hosp. for *anything*.
And any honorable workers w/ a conscience should just get the h*ll out of there. In fact, if they *stay*, it makes me question their integrity.
“If you have questions or concerns” contact me. (So that I can report you to the FIB for threatening “My” “Well being”.)
Commies just love using Double Think “Logic”. Once this infected Commies seldom ever make a recovery to becoming human beings again.
Asking the Taliban for “mercy” has about as much chance of success.
First rule of medicine. “First do no harm”.
Just a bunch of words now.
This should be illegal.
People in CO. better raise a stink about this.
Hey, at least they can go smoke a joint ?♂️
Smoke enough to prepare their mind to connect to the collective consciousness.
Then the chiffon colored unicorns in rainbow colored elevated track shoes can instruct them on how to make the most out of a completely useless and pathetic existence.
That’s not just blackmail, that’s EXTREME blackmail!
SUE THE SH*T OUT OF EVERYBODY! WE ARE LIVING IN THE BANANA REPUBLIC OF STUPIDITY!!!!!!
Outrageous, this is as bad as parents not being able to see their newborn. Unreal, I hope these folks can find a hospital that will take them and do the surgery w/out the shot. Does anyone know of any hospital in the country that isn’t like this, or have they all turned?
This gentleman is good, discusses how the shot is a bioweapon. It is nice to hear from someone in a different country. He believes and has faith there will be an international tribunal and David will beat Goliath. I want to believe that desperately.
https://www.facebook.com/hanspeter.brenn1/videos/217004513783005
Immediately sue the hospital for medical malpractice and add criminal charges of reckless endangerment. The head of the surgical department should be arrested and held in solitary confinement as a potential flight risk.
I’d be fine with that.
Yep – tie the bass turds up in court – make’m squirm.
Thank God the government never got control over the Healthcare system…..
(Yes…sarcasm)
It makes sense as yet another corrupt arm of the octopus is revealed. Big Pharma simply cannot continue in its current form, it must be totally and utterly reformed from the ground up. This is no small thing. People all over the world trust medicine, it is the first port of call when one is unwell. Yet it is completely corrupt.
Faith in media – destroyed.
Faith in medicine – being destroyed.
Faith in Government and all its branches – watch this space …
TRO time.
For an intelligent take on the non-politicized, non-corrupted but very effective pandemic response in Utter Pragar Province in India, see Dr. John Campbell, a UK nurse, reviewing what has been published (but not here) on the subject:
I can’t stand that guy. He’s been on the “get vaxxed” train, trusting the published data without doing any investigations. I feel like he’s led a lot of people astray.
Why is she getting this letter from a nurse, and not a doctor? Since when do nurses run transplant centers?
So – let me guess – the UC cancer treatment center is run by the head custodian?
The custodian would at least try to “do no harm”.
The transplant coordinator is the contact person between the patient and the staff. That’s the way the system is set up.
Charlton Heston in Planet of the Apes came to my mind right away upon reading this. “It’s a madhouse…”
Or the scene in Bridge on the River Kwai when Alec Guinness finally recognizes that he has been so obsessed with the process that he forgot the purpose. For at least some of these people the issue is not that they are inherently evil, it’s that they are obsessed with the agenda and have lost sight of their morality.
Of course some are just plain evil.
wow.
It just never stops.
Oh it will stop, but not before there is a lot more pain and anguish spread by the conmunist demoncrats and their propaganda media mill enablers.
A pox upon them all, their houses and their spawn.
Harvard recently shut down it’s business school after a covid breakout where most students and faculty are vaccinated.
Over the target my a$$,he’s making HITS…
Medical tyranny, supply line shortages, stagflation, murder on the rise, etc. FJB and the Communist cabal, including the propaganda media and the lab coat rat FoulChe, pushing this insane China Virus fearmongering have turn the U.S. into a Maoist CCP type Cuba, Venezuela third world country. People losing their jobs, no medical treatment, etc. for not taking an experimental jab that is proven ineffective and in many cases deadly.
Until the tyrants are stopped this will continue to get worse with more and more draconian “rules” for compliance. “They Live” Obey……….. NOT!… I refuse and I don’t need any special glasses to see these Communist tyrants for what they are. However lately, I feel that I am in the minority as there are many sheeple still falling for and following the COVID fear. I wonder when enough is enough for the face diaper babies? SMH

Yesterday, a Treeper posted this list of lawyers who will fight vaccine mandates:
https://cleverjourneys.com/2021/09/19/list-of-lawyers-by-state-who-fight-covid-19-mandates/
They call it “The Great Reset”, the goal to align life along leftist ideology.
They keep this up, they’ll get their re-alignment; but not in the direction they think.
For someone waiting for a kidney transplant, finally getting a transplant donor is no small feat.
Many people wait YEARS for it to happen.
It is unconscionable that a hosp. would do this.
I’ve been warning about this to everyone I know. I saw it coming when healthcare workers were talking about not wanting to treat un”vaccinated” patients.
I’ve written my governor that I want to see healthcare workers that deny care to any un”vaccinated” prosecuted.
This has to be against the law. They should lose their licenses to practice medicine.
Read this and Think for a second…
“Lutali said she has religious concerns with the vaccines, as well as concerns that the vaccine would not be effective after receiving immunosuppressant drugs post-surgery.”
Science and health has nothing to do with their demands.
Blind ignorance of their own stupidity.
And there are plenty of Docs out there warning that the vax is particularly toxic to immune – suppressed people.
That’s the problem w/ these “take the vax or get out” Doctors and Nurses>>>>> NONE of them are paying attention to the SCIENCE.
Which shakes my whole confidence in them and reduces it to ZERO.
Forcing this crap into every citizen of the US is the entire reason this Hospital exists.
Reminds me of my sister’s experience in the emergency room when she had a case of bacterial pneumonia. She already had a negative covid test that was still good from her doctor’s visit, but had an attack late at night, ended up in the ER. The nurses got really shitty with her when they found she hadn’t taken the jab. Thankfully, she’s never been one to take shit off of anybody and she got right in their faces and asked them directly, “have you even bothered looking at my file to find out WHY I didn’t get vaccinated?” Yeah, doctor’s advice due to autoimmune disorders which they would have seen very clearly had they bothered to check. Unfortunately, that hospital is really the only viable choice that’s close to home for her.
In a million years, I never thought I’d see medical apartheid in America.
Do you remember how they mocked Sarah Palin when she predicted there would be death panels?
My local hospital in Bend OR just said no unvaxxed visitors allowed. This is so disturbing. Many healthcare workers have stated how this is wrong. Many who are vaxxed are also angry.
Get WuFlu, get well. Get an IgG WuFlu test in 4 weeks. Now, find another hospital/Dr. team. (The patient might already be on Lisinopril, which binds to the ACE2 receptor that WuFlu uses.
Be the Dissident, think the dissident, or be the (dead) slave.
Maybe she should’ve told them that she’s an illegal alien.
I’m sure they would’ve put her on the top of the transplant list and given her a medal.
Absolutely inhumane -perhaps no medical care for the unvaccinated in the future.! There is no justification for this, only punitive measures to marginalize those who remain unvaccinated. At this point, one wonders if accident victims will not be allowed transport or admission to a medical facility. Will they be left to die on the streets? Will unvaccinated cancer patients be allowed to continue with their treatment protocols? It’s not that we (the unvaccinated) are a risk to them, it’s because we are not obedient. The vaccinated are proving to be just as or more susceptible to all kinds of viruses. But then, who cares about that!! We are the rebels and must be commandeered.
I’m just assuming there will be no cancer treatment in my future. According to my doctors, I should expect to receive treatment every so many years (2-3), just to keep the little cancer cells at bay. I’m going to live my best life now, come what may.
Those of us who remain healthy as a gift from God, one I thank Him for daily, and who know the infrastructure the MedIC relies upon can certainly make some trouble for their kind. So far, it’s been quiet. Going after people’s kids and health though, IMO that’s a mistake. The bright minds behind these operations apparently think they have the prols figured out. OK.
Someone needs to let Katie Harmann know that this makes her an accessory to murder… unless the decision was hers: then she IS the murderer.
Isn’t this discrimination? Will they stop treating the morbidly obese who develop type 2 diabetes? Will they refuse to treat smokers who develop lung cancer? This is headed in a very dark direction. As Michael Moore once asked; “Dude, where’s my country”?
Only if they’re “officially” “unvaccinated.”
Maybe try a Hospital in WY? UC is University of Colorado (Boulder) and it totally rules Eastern Colorado. CU or UC owns all of the doctors too. A Dr. cannot survive with going along with UC. Thanks too Obamacare the Hospital merged with the selected Insurance Companies and they all are rich, rich, rich. The people pay more and get less. Just imagine if John McCain hadn’t showed up in DC that fateful day!
They’re doing all they can to make alternatives difficult. The talk of domestic travel involving a “vax” passport surely had the squelching of alternatives in mind.
I didn’t even consider this when they began proposing them.
These people are evil beyond words.
Branch Covidian, woke doctors now telling unvaxed to “go and die”. Our hospitals and physician’s are corrupt to the core. Lousy bastards is what they are. This crap cannot stand. The good patriots of Aurora need to go and surround that hospital with horns-a-blaring.
How dare they turn away a sick person like this.
Vanguard is calling all the shots.
