A Rancho Santa Fe law firm known for advocating for conservative causes has sued the San Diego Unified School District for lack of a religious vaccination exception.
It’s about the fact that COVID-19 vaccines were developed using standard laboratory-grown cell lines obtained from abortions performed decades ago.
“Our client’s belief prevents her from taking any of the currently available COVID-19 vaccines due to her flaw with aborted fetal cells. As a result, according to the district vaccination mandate, she must either give up her belief or sign up for independent online degree, ”said Paul Jonna, partner at LiMandri & Jonna LLP.
Joining the lawsuit is Chicago-based Thomas Moore Society, a public-interest law firm that supports conservative and religious causes.
Jonna’s clients are a 16-year-old Scripps Ranch High School student and her parents. He described the girl as “an outstanding athlete looking forward to the winter season in the hope of attracting the attention of college recruiters and potentially receiving an athletic scholarship.”
In September the school district announced that all students must be vaccinated in order to attend classroom classes.
The lawsuit, filed last week in the US District Court in San Diego, seeks an injunction against the mandate to protect “freedom of worship.”
LiMandri & Jonna sued the California Department of Education in September for adding an ancient Aztec prayer to their curriculum.
