Ninth Circuit Overturns LAUSD's Covid-19 mRNA Vaccine Mandate on June 7, 2024
Jun 8, 2024, 12:28 AM
The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals has overturned a lower court decision, ruling that the Los Angeles Unified School District's (LAUSD) Covid-19 vaccine mandate interfered with employees' fundamental right to refuse medical treatment. The court's decision, which aligns with the Health Freedom Defense Fund's lawsuit (case number 22-55908), states that the Covid-19 shots, including mRNA shots, are not vaccines but medical treatments, thus employers cannot mandate them. This ruling, issued on June 7, 2024, reverses the district court's application of the Supreme Court’s decision in Jacobson v. Massachusetts, which only applies when a vaccine prevents transmission. The decision has significant implications for vaccine mandates and could impact similar cases moving forward.
