The baby needs life-saving treatment, but his parents oppose blood transfusions from vaccinated donors.
A New Zealand court has ordered a child at the centre of a case over blood transfusions from donors vaccinated against Covid-19 be taken into temporary custody by health officials.
He dismissed the parents' request for unvaccinated blood, calling it unnecessary and impractical, and agreed with health authorities that the boy's "survival [was] actually dependent on the application being granted". Ms Grey said the long-term effects of the vaccine were "untested" and accused doctors of refusing to provide an alternate donor service for ideological reasons.
The case has become a vector for anti-vaccine activists in New Zealand with demonstrators - many of whom carried placards - gathering outside the court before the ruling was delivered on Wednesday.
