The parents of four San Diego public school students are suing in federal court over the local school district’s requirement that forces students aged 16 and older to be vaccinated against COVID-19.

The board of the San Diego Unified School District (SDUSD) first imposed the mandate in spite of parental protests in September last year but then delayed it, ordering its implementation in March. No religious objections to the mandate have been allowed, which legal experts say makes the mandate constitutionally suspect.
