胸の痛み、記憶が飛ぶ、息苦しさなどの症状が１年以上　ワクチン後遺症に苦しむ女性が実名・顔出しで告白／副反応に関する超党派の議員連盟も発足【大石が聞く】

(Doctor) "What is your most painful symptom right now?" (Yukiko Izawa) "Palpitations, shortness of breath, chest pain, and occasional headaches." Yukiko Izawa, 51, lives in Nagoya. After receiving her second COVID-19 vaccine in August 2021, she began feeling unwell, and more than a year later, she still suffers from symptoms such as pain in her left chest and headaches. On this day (September 15th), while being examined by a doctor... (Doctor) "Do you have chest pain?" (Yukiko Izawa) "It hurts a little right now." "Today, it's here. The pain varies depending on the day, so it's mostly here, and sometimes here and here." Not only is her chest hurting, but she also seems to have difficulty talking. (Oishi) "Didn't that happen before you got the vaccine?" (Izawa Yukiko) "No, I didn't." (Oishi) "When does it hurt?" (Izawa Yukiko) "It hurts even when I'm not doing anything in particular, and it hurts when I walk." A few days later (September 20th), when I visited Izawa at her home, I noticed other symptoms. (Izawa Yukiko) "I remember meeting her, at least. However, if you ask me in detail what we talked about, I can't answer." She also had memory problems, making it difficult to remember recent events. She keeps forgetting things, so she writes down anything that comes to mind on Twitter or in a notebook. (Oishi) "So Twitter is not something you share with others, but rather a personal record?" (Izawa Yukiko) "Yes. So when I look at it, I can see what happened on a particular day." He used to be passionate about gardening, but now he can't do it anymore because his chest hurts as soon as he walks. (Izawa Yukiko) "I used to tend to all the fruit trees around here, and I used to work in the fields, but..." When we visited, he was so short of breath that he had to lean against something after standing for just two minutes. More than a year has passed since his vaccination, and his health is still poor. His family is growing increasingly anxious. (Husband, 61) "I had the impression that vaccine side effects, like fever, would subside within a day or two, so the fact that it's been going on for a year makes me worried that the symptoms might get better." (Son, 24) "(My mother) usually seems to be in this living room all the time. We get in the car when we go out, and I can hear her breathing really loudly from the passenger seat, and I can hear her taking in big, forceful breaths from next to me, so I can tell she's exhausted." Her son, who graduated from a correspondence university this year, is supporting his mother by doing housework and other tasks instead of getting a job. (Son) "I want to do everything I can. I feel like I'm giving back to the people who raised me this way." (Announcer Oishi) "I want her to stay at home for a while longer..." (Son) "Yes, I want to help her as much as possible." (Yukiko Izawa) "I want her to still live her own life and do what she wants to do. But I feel very reassured." Life has changed dramatically since the vaccination. I urge the government to address the issue of vaccine side effects. (Yukiko Izawa) "Even though more and more people like me have received the vaccine, there's no treatment and no one is helping me. Even at hospitals, they say there are no 'vaccine side effects,' so I want them to find a treatment. I want vaccine side effects to be recognized." The cause of long-term post-vaccination ill health remains unknown. Nagoya City was the first in the country to set up a specialized consultation center for side effects in March of this year, and in the past six months, it has received 1,568 consultations (as of September 16th) regarding symptoms such as joint pain, numbness, and headaches. (Takashi Kawamura, Mayor of Nagoya City) "I don't know if this is due to the government's constant push to get the vaccine, but I think a proper investigation is necessary." Amid this, a bipartisan coalition of Diet members considering vaccine side effects held its first meeting on September 20th. The group's chairman is Senator Ryuhei Kawada, who was also a victim of the AIDS drug scandal. (Constitutional Democratic Party of Japan, Senator Ryuhei Kawada) "I strongly question the government's decision to push ahead with child vaccination at a time when progress is slow (globally). I intend to present this proposal to the Chief Cabinet Secretary and Minister of Health, Labor and Welfare Kato." Two members of the group, representing local governments working to combat vaccine side effects, are Mayor Takashi Kawamura of Nagoya City and Mayor Kenichi Minamiide ​​of Izumiotsu City, Osaka Prefecture. Both were involved in the group's founding. (Nagoya Mayor Takashi Kawamura) "We need to learn more." (Izumiotsu Mayor Kenichi Minamiide) "We have set up our own online consultation service, and we have a doctor on-site who is knowledgeable in Western medicine and also has expertise in integrative medicine, such as traditional Chinese medicine."
