Annemiek van Eck is one of the 381 Dutch citizens registered as 'passed away after corona vaccination'.
On June 14th, 2021, a Dutch news site that carries news from eastern parts of the country
published an article about the death of a 74-year-old woman from the city of Breda shortly after she received a covid vaccine.
She is one of the 381 people currently registered in Holland as having 'passed away after corona vaccination'. On Monday April 19th, she was playing tennis and afterwards cycled to the vaccination location for her first Covid jab. In the evening, she sent a text to her son Jasper and daughter Femke, saying
"Apparently, if they give you the vaccine at night, you won't even notice it."
That night, she passed away in her sleep and her son found her the next evening.
The first thought both Jasper and Femke had was that her death was likely linked to the vaccine. Jasper said: "that seemed the most logical explanation to us." The search for cooperation and answers from medical authorities, however, is proving to be very difficult, leaving the siblings feeling dismissed and alone.
The evening of their mother's death, they called a medical examiner, but he wasn't really interested in possible causes. Femke says: "When we said that we wanted to have a thorough investigation into what happened, the medical examiner immediately started talking about the transport costs and
reacted very defensively." The examiner wasn't the only healthcare provider to show little interest in the cause of their mother's death. When they spoke to their mother's GP, he
tried to convince them that the death of their mother was most likely a coincidence,
and that there is little point in searching for a link with the vaccine. Jasper notes: "In the end, the GP did arrange for a pathologist to investigate the death further.
But isn't it strange that you have to face so much opposition?"
