Yulia Hicks
A 14-year-old girl from Ukraine adopted by an American family.
The Hicks family adopted Yulia in January of 2021 knowing that she had a genetic kidney condition that would eventually require surgery. The condition is called Senior Loken Syndrome, and in addition to degenerative kidney failure, Yulia is also losing her vision because the syndrome affects the rods and cones inside of the eye.
Yulia made headlines in 2022 when doctors from Duke University in North Carolina refused to carry out a kidney transplant that she needed because she had not received an injection of synthetic mRNA — this despite Yulia already having had Covid, and therefore natural immunity.
