Yesterday we learned of a Long Island woman who was arrested for illegally vaccinating a teenager in her home without the prior consent of the teen’s parents. Making the story even stranger was the fact that the woman, Laura Russo, was not a medical professional of any sort and she was not qualified to perform such a medical procedure. Initially, little was known about either the woman or the student, but now a few more details are emerging. Perhaps the most interesting one is that the woman, who has been charged with a Class E felony, is a teacher at one of the local schools. You might think that such a person would be fired from their job after allegedly demonstrating such irresponsible behavior, but if so, you probably don’t know much about how the teachers’ unions work. Instead, she has simply been “reassigned to other duties.” (NY Post)
The Long Island teacher who was arrested for illegally injecting a 17-year-old boy with a COVID-19 vaccine at her home without the teen’s parental consent has been reassigned from her classroom duties, according to reports.Laura Russo, 54, who is not a doctor or authorized to administer vaccines, was busted for the New Year’s Eve incident at her Sea Cliff home, according to Nassau County police.
Russo is a science teacher with Herricks Public Schools in New Hyde Park, according to the district’s website. She has been taken out of the classroom as the criminal investigation proceeds.
The school district released a statement saying that Russo had been “removed from the classroom and reassigned.” No further details of what her new assignment might entail were provided. But the district seemed to be attempting to offer her some cover by pointing out that the vaccination “did not take place on school property.”
What difference does that make? If she was sexually assaulting the child in her home would she be allowed to keep her job because the assault didn’t take place at school?
Russo clearly didn’t see anything wrong with what she was doing. In fact, she was apparently comfortable enough to allow herself to be filmed while administering the injection. The video showed up on social media with the victim’s face blurred for privacy reasons.
“There you go, at home vaccine”. Police have arrested a Long Island mother for illegally giving a 17 year old boy a shot of Covid vaccine in her home. And there’s video….Only on @NBCNewYork #nbc4ny pic.twitter.com/KpG5vAQaDT— Pei-Sze Cheng (@PeiSzeCheng4NY) January 3, 2022
One of the other questions I posed yesterday has also now allegedly been answered. Why would the teenager be asking for a shot when they are so freely available everywhere you go? It turns out that my initial assumptions were incorrect. The student was a friend of Russo’s son and had come over for a visit. He told them that his mother didn’t want him to get the vaccine so he was looking for another way to get vaccinated and Russo obliged. But that still begs the same question I had yesterday. If he was sneaking off to get vaccinated against his mother’s wishes, why would he immediately go home and tell her about it?
The final fact that emerged with the release of the video was also disturbing. Russo appears to have injected the teen with the Johnson & Johnson vaccine. That one is only approved for patients age 18 and over, which only compounds the number of errors in her illegal activities. This woman is supposed to be a science teacher. And this is how she behaves in her private life?
While this is only speculation, it’s not hard to imagine that Russo was deeply engaged in the debate over vaccinations and was eager to override the will of the student’s parents who didn’t wish to give their approval for the procedure. If that’s the case, can you imagine what other sorts of indoctrination have been going on in her classroom? And what sort of “science” she’s teaching these children?
Russo is scheduled to be arraigned on January 21st.
So where did she get the vax?
This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)
The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.
Prison, an example needs to be set before more of these criminals do it.
“So where did she get the vax?”
I was under the impression the shots had to be kept extremely cold as well. The average freezer wouldn’t do it. Has that changed?
Perhaps one of the safest things to do right now in our war with the virus is to quarantine ALL individuals with “eddikashun” degrees. There is an obvious correlation between these laughable degrees and actions of unbelievable stupidity. One should NOT allow these vermin anywhere near children.
As for publik skoolz? As often said by the Daleks, “Exterminate! Exterminate!”
The only pertinent question that needed to be answered, and the journalista completely snoozed it.
Yes it has changed several times from the original -80C for Pfizer, first to -70C, then to -20C. Moderna was always -20C and J&J was always "normal freezer" temps.
The Pfizer thing was a big deal because although many hospitals have (tiny) -70C capacity for long-term sample preservation, -80C was essentially nonexistent in December 2020.
I can't believe some people still prefer J&J, we haven't used any in months.
Where she got it?
Good question. Back in December 2020/January 2021 several pharmacists lost their jobs for stealing Pfizer or Moderna, and a doc in Houston lost his license for vaccinating his wife.
It was always kind of dicey, because once Pfizer was defrosted (it came in vials of 5 doses, which could be stretched to 6 or even 7) it had to be wasted at the end of the day, so there was always a rush to "find an arm" which meant that low-priority people sometimes wound up jumping the line.
Inquiring minds want to know!! I wonder that too!
That was my main question, while reading this nightmare story.
Most 17-year-old boys would want to inject HER with something!
Now if it had been a 17-year-old GIRL and teach had performed an abortion...
What’s the problem?
Don’t our rulers WANT all the children to get their shots??
She will eventually be fired.
She would already be if she was not part of the teachers UNION. She will be charged, but most likely will not go to jail.
The parents will sue the school district, her personally, and anyone else they can. IF the son has any provable side effects the school district could be looking at millions in damages.
This lady may end up losing her home, job and everything else she has worked for in her life over this stupid decision.
Don’t our rulers WANT all the children to get their shots??
*******
Gotta keep the money flowing within their approved procedure.
I think only the pfizer shot had to be extremely cold.
Moderna and the Johnson & Johnson shot does not.
It needs to be a criminal case long before it becomes a civil case. She needs to go to prison first.
There should be a long list of names being charged for this “bad act”.
The kid probably returned the favor afterwards and gave her his own High Pressure Injection.
