St. Louis School Gives H1N1 "Swine Flu" Shot to Student Despite Parent's Written Objection


The schools and other State actors play by their own rules and do not care whether some parent may object to the school's H1N1 "swine flu" vaccination program. Even if the parent does not want the vaccine for her kid, it does not matter. The school will give the vaccine regardless just like it recently did in St. Louis.

ST. LOUIS MO (KTVI-FOX2now.com) - A grade school student reportedly received a swine flu shot his mother didn't want him to have. She says she put it in writing, but someone at her son's school in the St. Louis City School District still gave him the shot.

Kenyatta Allen says she received a permission slip which she signed the section forbidding the H1N1 shot being given to eleven year old Brandon. He has asthma, and she was concerned about side effects.


Unless the laws of Missouri are unreasonable, this mother should have a cause of action against the school district and perhaps the person who injected her son especially if that person knew about the parent's objection prior to the shot.
