A powerful voice in the debate on mandatory COVID-19 vaccination

On April 3, 2025, during a public hearing in Mercedes, Paraná, a deeply emotional testimony shook the room. Alice Romano, the mother of 13-year-old Vanessa, bravely shared the heartbreaking story of her daughter’s passing after receiving her first dose of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine.

Alice spoke after hearing a local radio program in Marechal Cândido Rondon, where those speaking out against mandatory COVID-19 vaccination were dismissed as “fake news.” Her powerful words were not only a personal outcry but also a call for respect, compassion, and freedom of expression in public health debates.

“They said we were fake news. But my daughter is not fake. Her life was real. Her death was real.”

Her testimony reflects the pain felt by many families who believe their concerns are being ignored or ridiculed by mainstream narratives. Alice’s voice is part of a growing movement demanding transparency, accountability, and choice in health decisions.
