Parents of vaccine ‘victim’ seek justice

PARENTS of the 11-year-old girl who died of dengue after being inoculated with the Dengvaxia vaccine last year vowed to help in the investigation into the P3.5-billion dengue vaccine program being conducted by the Justice department and other bodies, to bring justice to their child and other children who have received the shots.

Nelson and Marivic de Guzman, parents of Cristine Mae, were convinced that the death of their eldest daughter was due to the dengue vaccine given her on April 2016 as part of the government’s dengue immunization program.
