A New York school teacher with no formal medical qualification has been arrested for allegedly giving a Covid vaccine to a student, say officials.<\/b><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Police say Laura Russo administered the dose at her home despite having no legal authorisation to give jabs, or consent from the boy’s parents.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Ms Russo, 54, who teaches biology, was held on New Year’s Eve and could face four years in prison if convicted.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The 17-year-old boy had reportedly wanted the vaccine.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Injections can be dangerous if administered incorrectly. Doctors and licensed medical workers have to verify that a vaccine is not counterfeit or expired. Patients should also be asked about their medical history and have their reaction monitored after a jab.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
