A high school student in Kentucky is suing the Northern Kentucky Health Department and other state Health Department officials after an outbreak of chickenpox at his private school led to his removal from the school's basketball team.
In an effort to contain the illness the KYHD required,"all students without proof of vaccination or proof of immunity against chickenpox will not be allowed to attend school until 21 days after the onset of rash for the last ill student or staff member." The ban also extended to"all school events and extracurricular activities involving other schools or the public."
"The fact that I can't finish my senior year in basketball, like, our last couple of games, it's pretty devastating. I mean, you go through four years of high school playing basketball you look forward to your senior year," Kunkel told WLWT.
And those this teen puts at risk or worse infects?
Teen should be...parents should have to pay all legal fees
“Virus sues Kentucky Health department after being banned from human bodies.”
The germy elite. Probably the same people who cough without covering their phlegm hole
Scientifically illiterate and unconcerned about others' well-being. Nice people.
Correction: Teen’s Parents.
