<p>A California mom said her 13-year-old son was vaccinated against COVID-19 without her consent after someone at the school offered him food to get the shot.</p>
<p>Maribel Duarte, whose son is a student at the Barack Obama Global Prep Academy in South Los Angeles, told <a href="https://www.nbclosangeles.com/news/local/mom-says-son-vaccinated-in-exchange-for-pizza-at-lausd-without-her-consent/2773619/">NBC 4 Los Angeles</a> that her son brought home a vaccine card from school after he agreed to get inoculated in exchange for pizza.</p>
<p>&#8220;The lady that gave him the shot and signed the paper told my son, &#8216;Please don&#8217;t say anything. I don&#8217;t want to get in trouble,’” Duarte claimed.</p>
<p>&#8220;It hurt to know he got a shot without my permission, without knowing and without signing any papers for him to get the shot,&#8221; she added.</p>
<p>Duarte herself is vaccinated and is not personally against the vaccine, but she said her son is a different case, noting that he experiences asthma and complications from allergies.</p>
<p>Obama Prep is part of the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD). Officials there refused to comment specifically, saying that student matters are confidential, but noted that the district&#8217;s &#8220;safe schools to safe steps incentive program&#8221; provides for a number of steps to give prizes to vaccinated students.</p>
<p>LAUSD has imposed a vaccine mandate on students in its district that requires students ages 12 and up to be vaccinated against COVID-19 by January 10.  Students who remain unvaccinated by the deadline and do not have a qualified exemption will be forced to return to virtual classes. As of the Thanksgiving weekend break, 80% of students at Obama Prep were vaccinated, according to LAUSD.</p>
<p>The school district&#8217;s mandate is different from the vaccine mandate for public and private schools imposed by California Democratic Governor <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/breaking-newsom-announces-nations-first-k-12-vax-mandate-for-public-and-private-schools">Gavin Newsom</a> on October 1st.</p>
<p>Jennifer Kennedy, a lawyer who is following two ongoing lawsuits against LAUSD seeking to end the district&#8217;s vaccine mandate, said that in California, children cannot legally consent to take vaccines. She further noted that the district does not have the authority to impose such a mandate.</p>
<p>&#8220;The LAUSD does not have the power to add a vaccine to the California school schedule,&#8221; she said. &#8220;You couldn&#8217;t do it if you were a podunk school district and you can&#8217;t do it if you&#8217;re LAUSD, the second largest district in the nation. You don&#8217;t have that legal authority.&#8221;</p>
<p>NBC 4 notes that new vaccination requirements are created by the state legislature and managed by the state Department of Health.</p>
<p>Elsewhere in California, the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/california-school-district-votes-to-defy-states-vaccine-mandate">Calaveras Unified School District</a> voted unanimously not to “support, enforce or comply with” the state&#8217;s vaccine mandate for its students or staff. The CUSD board also scheduled a motion to address mask mandates and COVID testing. “The board’s informal comments regarding the pending state mandates for COVID-19 vaccinations, as expressed by them individually and collectively at the October 19th Board Meeting, indicated that they have concerns and questions about the COVID-19 mandate for staff and students and they do not support the mandate,” the school district said in a letter to parents a week before the vote.</p>
<p>A number of groups have also <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/california-group-plans-additional-rally-against-covid-mandates">rallied</a> against the mandate, citing concerns about forced vaccinations.</p>
