The baby was born on December 1, 2024 and was screened for SCID, with a seriously combined immune system. This is the head of the Flemish government, written by the Flemish Minister of National Affairs, Hilde Crevits (CD&V).

Ouders kunnen hun pasborn baby laten screening op een reeks aanborn aandoeningen. This is verified via the Ziehaamde Hielprik of Guthrie test. The screening test can be carried out beforehand and can also be started early in the treatment. In the manner, serious handicaps of letels can be seen in the following procedures. The service is not obligatory in the Netherlands in the amount of 99 percent of the goods.

Since May 2023, the screening program will be launched with two different substances: ‘homocystinuria’ and ‘holocarboxylase synthetase deficiency’. On December 1, 2024, the screening will come to SCID, a seriously combined immune system, which is now available.

For children with SCID, the child has a child who never has good protection against harmful infections. Meestal begins the klachten in the first maanden na de geboorte, maar soms also pas later. The oorzaak of SCID is an afwijking in a gen. Hoeveel last nobody heeft van SCID kan van persoon dead persoon differently zijn.
