The parents of a teen who was given the Covid injection without their consent can sue the public school system and a doctor’s group involved in the case, the North Carolina Supreme Court ruled on Friday.
The ruling reversed a lower court’s decision that said federal health emergency laws ruled out such legal action.
The lawsuit filed by Emily Happel alleges that in August of 2021 her son was given the shot at a testing and vaccination clinic set up at a Guilford County high school.
The teen went to the clinic to be tested for Covid after some players on his school’s football team contracted the virus. Then teen did not expect the clinic would be providing the shot in addition to the testing, according to the lawsuit. The teen told workers at the site that he didn’t want the shot, and he lacked a signed parental consent form to get one. When the clinic was unable to reach his mother, a worker instructed another to “give it to him anyway,” the lawsuit states.
Happel and her son sued the Guilford County Board of Education and an organization of physicians who helped operate the school clinic, alleging claims of battery and that their constitutional rights were violated.
According to a press release from Happel’s legal counsel, Walker Kiger PLLC, the Old North State Medical Society was accused of illegally injecting the teenager without his or his mother’s consent.
“No matter what your position is on vaccines, we should all be able to agree that children should not be subjected to medical procedures without their parents’ knowledge and consent. We have made multiple attempts to try to resolve this issue with Guilford County Schools and the Old North State Medical Society and we have been met with nothing but deafening silence,” the press release said.
George Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene stated: “FDA approval for Covid-19 vaccines needs to be pulled and they need to be taken off the childhood vaccine schedule ASAP. Covid-19 vaccines are causing permanent harm and deaths.”
