Premiered Sep 23, 2021 • Many parents are naturally concerned about whether a school can vaccinate their child without their parents’ consent. In this video, I discuss the legal requirement for healthcare professionals to obtain consent for the COVID-19 vaccine (or any vaccine) and how this may relate to children and young people. Please always refer to official rules and guidelines.
