Clinical narrative: asphyxiation due to innapropiate sleep position and environment / Accidental death; Sudden infant death syndrome; Slept off and on; still acting fussy and uncomfortable; still acting fussy and uncomfortable / by 6:15 the baby was fussing; screaming; Patient's blood contained 95 micrograms per liter of aluminum, a level that would be toxic for adults; Aluminum and antigen levels in the blood were due to the vaccines; The report also showed high levels of lead, which would not be due to vaccines; This spontaneous report was received from a news editor in online article where a mother (who is a nurse) reported about her son, a 62-day-old male patient. The patient's historical conditions were not reported and concomitant therapies were not reported. On 20-OCT-2024, the patient experienced rash around his torso and the doctor diagnosed viral infection, and some medicinal cream and monitor temperature for possible fever was given as treatment.  On 27-OCT-2022 (also reporter as exactly one week later), the mother took him to the pediatrician for a baby wellness checkup, where the doctor insisted on the baby receiving the schedule childhood vaccines, despite the mother's reservations and the rash he was still experiencing. At the end, the patient was vaccinated with rotavirus vaccine, live, oral, pentavalent (ROTATEQ) oral liquid, administered orally as prophylaxis for rotavirus; haemophilus b conjugate vaccine (meningococcal protein conjugate) (LIQUID PEDVAXHIB) intramuscular injection (reported as Hib) (manufacturer unknown) as prophylaxis for Haemophilus influenzae b (formulation, route of administration and injection site were not provided); pneumococcal vaccine conj 13v (crm197) (PREVENAR 13) (manufacturer unknown) as prophylaxis for 13 types of pneumococcal bacteria (formulation, route of administration and injection site were not provided); and diphtheria vaccine toxoid, hepatitis b vaccine rhbsag (yeast), pertussis vaccine acellular 3-component, polio vaccine inact 3v (vero), tetanus vaccine toxoid (PEDIARIX) (manufacturer unknown) as prophylaxis for diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, hepatitis B and polio (formulation, route of administration and injection site were not provided); for all of them strength, dose, scheme, lot number and expiration date were not provided. On the same date, after the doctor's visit, the patient arrived home screaming (screaming) and the mother gave him paracetamol (TYLENOL) recommended by the doctor.   On 28-OCT-2022 (reported as the next day), the baby calmed somewhat but was still acting fussy and uncomfortable (discomfort and irritability), the mother gave him paracetamol (TYLENOL) and expressed breastmilk. That day around 5:30, the father put him into his bassinet for a nap. By 6:15 he was fussing and with help he went back to sleep. He slept off and on (sleep disorder) for another 4 hours while the parents kept tabs on him. The last time the mother checked on him, he wasn't moving or breathing; she picked up his limp and lifeless body and started screaming, the father rushed in to help but was too late. Emergency medical technicians arrived after they called EMS, they were unable to revive him. The county and state police open a formal investigation and ordered an autopsy, which revealed death to be well developed, without signs of injury and bruising. The death certificate was filed citing asphyxiation due to sub-optimal sleeping environment (Asphyxia), blaming the parents. The parents said the only thing in his basket was the blanket he was laying on. The police concluded it was an accidental death. The mother called the medical examiner to determine if sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) was responsible but was told it wouldn't show the cause of death. The mother continued investigating her son's cause of death and she discovered a suite of pathology test (test measure C-reactive protein and cytokine panel) could determine whether vaccines played a role in the death. Then, in 21-JUN-2023, the tests were finally performed. She hired a toxicologist to interpret the report, who told that the patient's aluminum levels were very high, with 95 micrograms of aluminum per liter of blood that would be toxic even for adults (blood aluminum increased, death). The toxicologist told the aluminum and antigen level in blood (blood test abnormal) were due to the vaccines. Also, that the baby illness could contributed and high levels of lead (blood lead increased) which would not be due to vaccines, can be due to lead levels in water but the baby had only consumed breast milk. But given that the baby had only consumed breastmilk and was not yet old enough to crawl around on the floor, the question remains open. After receiving the confirmation about the aluminum, the parents felt exonerated from the implication they were responsible for the patient dying from asphyxiation.    The outcome of blood test abnormal, irritability, discomfort, sleep disorder, screaming and blood lead increased was not provided. The causal relationship between the events of asphyxia, sudden infant death syndrome, screaming, sleep disorder, discomfort, and irritability with the suspect vaccines was not provided. The causal relationship between the events of blood aluminium increased and blood test abnormal with the suspect vaccines was considered as related. The causal relationship between the event blood lead increased with the suspect vaccines was considered as not related.  Upon internal review the adverse events of asphyxia and sudden death and sudden infant death syndrome were determined to be a medically significant.   This is one of two reports received from the same reporter.; Reported Cause(s) of Death: Sudden infant death syndrome; Blood aluminium increased; Autopsy-determined Cause(s) of Death: asphyxiation due sub-optimal sleeping environment
