"I promised Moses on the grave that I would bring justice to light"
January 10, 2023
Moshe Ugur, 34, passed away last Thursday (5.1.2023) after collapsing and dying in the Clalit health fund at the Bialik branch in Ness Ziona. Last Thursday he made an appointment for the vaccine for him and his mother. At the last minute, she couldn't come and Moshe went alone around noon to get the fifth coronavirus vaccine. About an hour later, he collapsed and died.
"Moshe called me after the vaccination and told me that he was still in the clinic," his mother Malka describes. "It was noon. Fifteen minutes later, he called again and told me that he wasn't feeling well and that his blood pressure had risen and he was also vomiting. I told him to rest because maybe he was excited about something. After 20 minutes, he called again and said he had rapid heart palpitations and found heart palpitations on the HMO examination." After his death, the media claimed that he suffered from underlying medical conditions. But the family insists that he suffered only from diabetes and high cholesterol. His relatives explain that every three months he did a sugar test, and occasionally had to inject insulin. "The diabetes was very balanced and Moshe was closely monitored by the family doctor, there were no complications with the disease," Malka describes. Moshe had no heart disease, no heart problem. "He started to feel unwell right after the vaccine – how does this happen? True, I can't state anything unequivocally, but his evacuation was also delayed by an hour. But I will wait for the autopsy, I promised Moses on the grave at the funeral that I would bring justice to light. I don't want that to happen to any more families."
