East Jefferson High School in Metarie, La. recently administered the COVID-19 vaccine to children without parental consent, according to a lawsuit filed by the parents of one of the alleged victims.
G. Shelly Maturin, who is representing Jennifer Ravain in the court of law, issued a statement about what occurred. Ravain’s son was reportedly given the COVID-19 vaccine without any parental notification.
“The egregious and reckless actions of Ochsner and East Jefferson High School went well beyond any legal or moral bounds and at a minimum, constitute a battery upon the minor child,” Maturin said.
“Their actions should shock the conscience of all citizens of Louisiana, and every legal avenue will be pursued to make sure that justice is served,” he continued.
“Hopefully, this type of lawless behavior will stop immediately, and no other parents or children will have to go through this nightmare,” Maturin added.
Ochsner Health, the firm that administered the vaccine at the high school, released a statement apologizing for the lack of parental consent and said they would take measures to make sure this would not happen again.
