As someone who 100% supports pretty much everyone getting the COVID vaccine (and check your MMR status), yeah, a school can't just vaccinate kids without parental consent. That's insane.
The fact is, there are rare conditions and reactions to vaccination that and a school won't be privy to that information. The only people that will know that are the parents.
- Analemma_ 2y agoThe headline is referring to the consent of the child, which is much more important: if a 14-year-old wants the vaccine and their parents don't want them to have it, they should be allowed to get it (and the article specifically points out that this is permitted under North Carolina law). What actually happened here is much worse than that.
