An unvaccinated student in Kentucky will get his day in court after suing because he can't participate in extracurricular activities during a chickenpox outbreak.
Unvaccinated students have ordered by the state health department to stay away from the Our Lady of the Assumption Church school and its activities during the outbreak.
Kunkel's family founded the school and church, which opposes anything to do with abortion. He says the vaccine violates his beliefs because it's produced using cell lines derived from aborted fetuses generations ago. The National Catholic Bioethics Center says the vaccine is OK because it doesn't actually contain aborted cells.Related Stories
