A California mother was in shock this week after she found out that her 13-year-old son’s school had pressured the young teen into taking the experimental COVID vaccine without her consent.
On Tuesday, Maribel Duarte told NBC 4 News that her son brought home a vaccine card after he had been offered pizza by school officials in exchange for getting vaccinated at the Barack Obama Global Prep Academy in Los Angeles.
Her shock quickly turned to outrage when he told her that school officials had told him “not to say anything” about the incident.
Duarte explained to NBC:
“I should have been involved.
The lady that gave him the shot and signed the paper was the one that told my son ‘please do not say anything, I don’t want to get in trouble.’”
Duarte says that the actions of the school are especially concerning because her son has other underlying health conditions that she is worried could be a problem after taking the experimental jab.
